Who can approve/merge this? I am eager to see if this allows me to upgrade to django 3.2...

[sliverc]

@n2ygk Rebased to master. Hope this direct message will be noticeable in your sea of notifications... 😄 It would be great to get this released soon.

[simkimsia]

Apologies about the recurring messages.

I'm just checking in every Tuesday as scheduled on my calendar 'cause I have an upgrade where the blocker is just DJA and its compatibility with Django 3.2

Any way I can help make this merge happen sooner?

[sliverc]

@n2ygk I do not know when I will find time again to release this and I think it would be good to do this rather early than later. So I force merge this now. Please comment though if there is a need for change. And I hope you will find some time to look at the other PRs too which are still open. Thanks.
