The Django 1.11.x series is the last to support Python 2. The next major
release, Django 2.0, will only support Python 3.5+.

Deprecating warnings are no longer loud by default
==================================================

Unlike older versions of Django, Django's own deprecation warnings are no
longer displayed by default. This is consistent with Python's default behavior.

This change allows third-party apps to support both Django 1.11 LTS and Django
1.8 LTS without having to add code to avoid deprecation warnings.

Following the release of Django 2.0, we suggest that third-party app authors
drop support for all versions of Django prior to 1.11. At that time, you should
be able run your package's tests using ``python -Wd`` so that deprecation
warnings do appear. After making the deprecation warning fixes, your app should
be compatible with Django 2.0.
