Since:

  • the version check was pretty broken (only matches against that exact requirements file version syntax, plus doesn't check unpinned but still outdated version etc)
  • it only warned for Django 1.x, when there are lots of other EOL Django versions since then
  • it feels inconsistent for us to warn about one framework being EOL when there are lots of other packages and frameworks out there that should also be kept up to date too -- that's best handled by services like Dependabot security alerts etc

If at such time in the future our Django collectstatic feature requires a specific version of Django, any version checking/warning should occur as part of that feature.

GUS-W-11593026.
