Here’s an unpublished photo of @felixxm during Django On The Med 2025 🏖️

He kept coding with full focus even after all tables and chairs were removed and we were ready for lunch 🧘‍♀️

At that moment he was working on a pull request that adds database-level delete options for related fields which makes Django 6.1 more efficient by avoiding unnecessary queries 🚀

He has just merged this PR, making the new feature available for everyone 🎉

Django 6.1 will support database-level delete options for related fields 🚀 The database variants are much more efficient because they avoid fetching related objects ⚡ This is a great win for Django on the Med 🏖️ Let's dance 💃🕺

I'm so excited about this PR to add per page invalidation to cache_page decorated views in Django. I've wanted this for ages.

Coming out of Django on the Med 🏖️, BCN local and new Django contributor, Ramiro Nocelli causally opens a PR on one of those 18 year old tickets that we have lying around. 👊

It’s such a joy to see the first Django On The Med sprints come to life so beautifully. 🏖️

I had first suggested this idea back in 2022, and helping organize it together with @carlton made it even more special. 😊

I’m truly grateful to everyone who joined, shared their energy, and made these three days such a positive experience. 🙌

I’m at the top of Tibidabo Mountain overlooking Barcelona — the perfect place to reflect on an incredible week-long journey at Django on the Med 🏝️ It’s been an absolute blast: contributing to the Django project, talking, food tasting, walking, and making new friends. What a joy! Many thanks to Carlton @carlton and Paolo @paulox for making it all happen. The Django community is amazing — full of brilliant, open, and kind people. It’s an honor to be part of it.
