Using virtualenv

I've been reading up on using virtualenv for django projects and i just wanted a bit of confirmation.

After installing virtualenv via sudo pip install virtualenv. You type in the command virtualenv ENV to create a virtual --no-site-packages ENV directory named ENV that only has the pythong standard library in it.

Next you go to ./ENV/bin/ directory to install the latest version of Django.

To use older versions of Django, simply create another virtualenv and install a different version of Django in /bin/.

Please let me know if my logic is correct! Thank you!

Sounds right.

Do you mean you do source ./ENV/bin/activate and then do pip install django==VERSION to install the specified version of django? You do have to activate the virtualenv for it work.
