python-django (0.95.1-1etch2) stable-security; urgency=low
  
  The security fix included in this release introduces a backwards-incompatible
  change. The feature that retained HTTP POST data during re-authentication
  after session expiry has removed because of a cross-site request forgery 
  vulnerability (CSRF) that enabled unrequested modification/deletion of data.
  Consequently, if you made use of this feature in the past, things might not 
  behave as they used to. For more information see[1].
