I started a new project a few months back using Django 1.7. The company has decided to settle on using Django 1.6 for all projects.

Is there a nice way to downgrade from Django 1.7 to 1.6?

Are migrations the only thing I have to worry about? Are the changes between the two versions large enough that I need to rewrite the app? I was hoping to just change the version in the requirements.txt and then install south and create new database migrations.
