Re: Django tutorial hasn't received an update for 1.3

Hi,

If you've figured this stuff out, how about writing some of the tutorial yourself and submitting a patch?

Trying to teach someone else is the best way to figure out if you really understand something, and you'd be contributing to keeping the Django documentation great.

I keep checking the tutorial page for version 1.3 hoping to see some
new content related to the class-based views or at least some of the
promised future tutorials.  The tutorial still has the function-based
views, and no new updates since I first went through it on the 1.2
release.

I know the function views work in 1.3, but shouldn't the tutorial be
using the latest features included in 1.3 so that new users coming to
Django begin learning the newest features, such as class-based views.

I'm still a dinosaur and using Django 1.2 and haven't yet dived into
class-based views, and when I do, I would love a great tutorial on how
to proceed.  I plan on learning Django 1.3's newest features very soon
to keep myself up to speed and see if my current apps are fully
compatible.

Are there any updates on when we will see the following new tutorial
sections:
-    Advanced form processing
-    Using the RSS framework
-    Using the cache framework
-    Using the comments framework
-    Advanced admin features: Permissions
-    Advanced admin features: Custom JavaScript

I figured out most of this on my own, as they are pretty
straightforward, still haven't dived into custom javascript in the
admin yet.
