When will a new DRF release with official Django 6.0 support be published?

[cheehong1030]

Hi there! 👋

Now that Django 6.0 has been officially released.
Do you have any timeline or plans for a new Django REST Framework release that officially supports Django 6.0?
Is there a specific milestone, beta/RC, or expected release date we can track?

Thanks so much! 🙏

I was hoping to make one before the end of the year but that might be early Jan... AFAIK, no code changes were needed for supporting Django 6.0, so you should be good to use it already. Have you tried to use Django 6.0 with the latest DRF release yet? Did you encounter any blockers/problems?

Not yet, I haven’t tested it. I’m mainly concerned about unexpected issues appearing in the production environment. Thank a lot for your explanation.

I'm on Django 6 and haven't noticed any issues.

A new release would be appreciated, however, to pick up changes like #9766.
