Update for Django 4.0 support

[rlskoeser]

Are there any plans to update for django 4.0 ? If I opened a pull request with the needed changes, would someone be able to review and make a new release, or is this project no longer being maintained and I should look at switching to an alternate library?

If you submit a PR, I can review it

@acdha thanks, glad to hear that.

@acdha finally working on these updates (😅 trying to ignore the dates in this thread!) - I think I have the necessary fixes but wanted to check on approach before tidying up and making a pr.

Does it need to still work with older versions of django? Should the code try to import old/new versions of renamed packages, or ok to just target newer versions of django?

I have tox tests mostly passing with django 4.0 and 4.1 - I'm not sure if the ones that are failing ever worked / should work

My thought is that we can track Django's mainstream support versions – people can pin the version if they can't upgrade because it seems highly unlikely that they won't need to pin older versions of many other dependencies as well.
