Hi all, Why isn't Pillow the recommended Django image library yet? PIL has been unmaintained for almost 3 years and has a number of annoying bugs (e.g. fails to open some valid JPEG files, maybe has some security issues as well). Pillow, on the other hand, is a backwards-compatible community-maintained fork, which has most of those issues fixed and will even support Python 3 soon.
I think this change would involve (1) running the test suite with Pillow, (2) updating the documentation and (3) updating the ImageField warning shown when PIL is not installed. Looks like an easy change. What do you think? Thanks, -- Marijonas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
