Django version 1.5.5, using settings 'askbot.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.

but there are some deprecations warnings that must be resolved before upgrading to 1.6.:

• django.conf.urls.defaults is deprecated; use django.conf.urls instead
• django.utils.simplejson is deprecated; use json instead
• The 'execute_manager' function is deprecated, you likely need to update your 'manage.py'; please see the Django 1.4 release notes (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.4/).
• ...

I send a pull request to that effect: use django.conf.urls instead of django.conf.urls.defaults.
