+This is South, intelligent '''schema migrations''' for [http://www.djangoproject.org Django] apps.
+
+South is:
+
+ * Intelligent; it [wiki:About#MissingMigrations knows if you've missed out] a migration or two
+ * [wiki:About#DatabaseIndependence Database independent], so there's no hassle if you need to move databases.
+ * Easy; it can [wiki:About#AutomaticMigrationCreation write migrations for you], and it takes about a minute to [wiki:ConvertingAnApp convert your app] over to use South.
+ * Designed for a pluggable Django world; you can declare [wiki:Dependencies dependencies] between apps so they all migrate together correctly, and you can still use syncdb for your non-migrated apps without it interfering.

  * Have a read [wiki:About about South], and see why we think you should use it.

-The [wiki:Download latest version] of South is '''0.2''', released on 9th August 2008, but we've made some '''backwards-incompatable changes''' since. Please hold on for a bit while we finish them off; you can get the latest code from [wiki:Download subversion] in the meantime.
