I think the holdup is django-registration, which only recently got the
support for Django 1.5 in its dev version:
https://bitbucket.org/ubernostrum/django-registration/commits/all
Development against the dev version seems possible, though.

+1 for Ipython notebook integration. Also, submissions of Ipython
notebooks should be accepted (and not just as attachments, but rendered).

There are no @cache statements in the code currently, except that the
rendered code snippets are cached on disk (or in DB?), I think. This
GSoC milestone could be changed to "implement caching (using Django's
caching mechanism)".
