Django version in GAE

In the Google App Engine documentation, it is said that we can use different versions of Django:

from google.appengine.dist import use_library 
use_library('django', '1.1')

So do we really need to download any other (>0.96) Django versions and to put them in the application directory, or any other place, because only Django 0.96 is included with the App Engine SDK? Also, do we need to remove them before uploading the project to the server?

Can someone describe this process?

Django 0.96, 1.0.2, and 1.1 are available on AppEngine, but only 0.96 comes with the AppEngine SDK download. You can still use 1.0.2 or 1.1, you just need to download and install it separately. You don't need to put it in your app directory; when you upload to the AppEngine environment it will pick up the copy they have.
