After taking it down to better understand the motivations behind the Django Steering council voting rules, I've made major modifications and put the new version up.

I wish I could wait on multiple locks in Python.

I finally got some thoughts down around the Django steering council voting rules and what I think they should be.

A majority vote. Any more should be a prudential decision that the steering council itself makes, rather than encoded into its voting rules.

Two things I want with jujutsu for collaboration: automatic co-authors and crdt-based commit syncing. jj is helping me see that git and GitHub aren't a great way to collaborate on work-in-progress, because all syncing and conflict resolution has to be done manually.

I like that jj makes it clearer than long-lived branches are cumbersome and annoying. Sometimes git makes it too easy to forget.

jujutsu is really cool

I was able to get django-cmd to add configuration and also avoid a wrapper command, and I wrote about how I did it: medium.com/@RyanHiebert...

If you like (or don't) the idea of the main django command being named "django", chime in on this thread on the forum!

OK, I finally upgraded django-cmd to read from pyproject.toml.

django-cmd gives you a replacement for *both* django-admin.py and `manage.py` at the same time, and it's spelled "django"!

@mitsuhiko.at I’d like to know more about the legitimate purpose of async you see in Rust, and why it’s a different case from Python and JS (the languages I know). Got any easy links to share on it?
