# Upgrade Django v1.0.x

Django Release 1.0 production ready status

## Django's first production release

With the release of Django 1.0 on September 3rd, 2008, Django has finally reached production ready quality and ensures backwards compatability with releases.

## Upgrade Gotchas

- If you're upgrading from something older than this, congratulations on being a Django early adopter!. However, you should upgrade to at least the next [LTS release](https://upgradedjango.com/1.4/). It will have more security and bug fixes because of the [extended support](https://www.djangoproject.com/download/#ft2) period.
