Earlier today, I've built Django-1.6 for Rawhide and for F20 as well and 
submitted the upgrade to f20-testing via bodhi[1]. Please test
and leave karma there.

If you're a packager and your package requires an older Django version,
please change your package to require python-django15 and add 

from pkg_resources import require
require('Django>=1.5,<1.6')

to appropriate location(s) in your package. There is a blog post[2] on
how to consume older versions of Django. Even if the update to
Django-1.6 won't make it to stable, it should be safe to change your 
package anyways, as older Django versions will be retired sooner or
later.

If you require help, please contact me off list.

Thanks,
Matthias
