Compatibility

Zinnia tries to fit a maximum to the Django’s standards to gain in readability and to be always present when the version 3.4.2 of Django will be here. :)

Predicting the future is a good thing, because it’s coming soon. Actually Zinnia is designed to handle the 1.3.x version and will reach the release 1.5 easily without major changes.
