@Scott: I'm not sure there is something to do to help transitioning. Here is 
the page with the backward incompatible changes introduced in Django between 
0.96 and 1.0:
http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/BackwardsIncompatibleChanges
This link is in README.Debian included in the package.
As stated in the debian-release thread quoted before, and as I can attest from 
my experience, lot and lot of people are now using a svn snapshot of Django. 
0.96 is not really widely used. I believe a 1.0 on an hardy server is more 
useful than a 0.96. I understand well that it is not nice to break a Django app 
on an existing hardy server, but if you do not want anything to be broken on 
your server, you should never activate backports (I'm pretty sure we all agree 
on that having in this thread at least three person in the Ubuntu Server Team).

@Leonel: right, I already have a local backport (I have tested on two
applications I'm working on hosted on an hardy server). jquery needs a
source change (replacing debhelper 7 by debhelper 6 in dependencies) but
otherwise it works very well. As I said, I think it's valueable to have
a Django 1.0 on hardy server.

@Eddy: would you mind to prepare a debdiff from Debian Unstable to
prepare a merge for Intrepid?
