update to newer django, remove south migration dependency

mikofski opened this issue · comments

This app is using django-1.6.4 which predates Django migrations, so it depends on South. I think I did this originally for a number of reasons, mainly because alwaysdata was limited, but then later because tastypie was. However this is no longer the case, both alwaysdata and heroku can support any version of django, and tastypie as of v0.14.0 can support any LTS version of Django, currently versions 1.8 and 1.11.

I know this will be painful and annoying, but I think it will make changes in the future much easier, especially since South is completely deprecated, their documentation has been taken down, and can only be viewed from the South BitBucket repo.
