Can you use Python v. 2.7 with Django?

The Django book says: "The core Django framework works with any Python version from 2.3 to 2.6, inclusive. Django’s option开发者_开发百科al GIS (Geographic Information Systems) support requires Python 2.4 to 2.6."

From Django's FAQ:

Currently, Django itself officially supports any version of Python from 2.4 through 2.7, inclusive.

The Django Book (2nd edition) is written for Django version 1.0, while the latest release of Django is version 1.2.1, hence the difference.
