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

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Hi all,

After some discussion on Gitter, here is another proposal:

1. Create a 2.10.x branch to work on finalizing 2.10 release

2. Move master to version 2.99 and start merging work related to Python 
3 and Django 2 which will become GeoNode 3.0 (easier to communicate to 
users and organizations). GeoNode 3.0 will be Python 3 only.

3. Anything related to Python 2 stays on GeoNode 2.x and we leave room 
for potential 2.12 release after some time if needed.

4. Future plans for GeoNode, like work on geonode-api and separation of 
UI etc can then become GeoNode 4.0 which probably will be a re-write. 
This also is lines up with CSW 4.0 version number which will be based on 
OpenAPI and new OGC OWS direction.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Angelos
