[GeoNode-devel] Python 3 / Django 2 Upgrade version naming and branch

[Alessio Fabiani]

Hello Simone and Francesco,
just to clarify a bit more, the idea would be to following one.

When we are ready to start the release process (**after** clean up and
other preparation stuff we have already discussed at the meeting), the 2.10
branch would become the new stable branch, where we backport only critical
issues and/or features the community has tested enough (and that have a
maintainer).

The 2.11 branch would become the Python 2 dev branch for a while until we
definitively switch to Python 3. This because of people that installed
2.10, might still need to backport fixes without being forced to switch to
Python 3 and Django 2.

In the meantime, we will align the branches with the 2.20 one, based on
Python 3, and once we are ready to switch definitively, the next releases
will be based on the latter.

In parallel, hopefully, the work on GeoNode 3 will move on.
