Thanks Andreas,
Looking at the docs its seems upgrading to 1.11 LTS would give us the
longest
future in terms of updates. Is there any reason we should consider 1.10
over 1.11?
Thanks

I upgraded from 1.3 to 1.5. That was the hard part I think. We are
currently running version 1.10 and the updates to that version have
been without a problem. That being said - it all depends on what your
application does. If you do a lot of things that are specific for your
application. The main problems I had was with changing to class based
views for certain functions.
Also - you should really be upgrading to a supported LTS version
regardless of what management thinks is necessary. The problem here
isn't the time it takes to do the upgrade, but the things that are
excluded by running an older version of django. Updates to django come
on a regular basis and only come for the supported versions (right now
1.10 and 1.11). You REALLY don't want to run an old version of django
because of security exploits.

Go from 1.6 to 1.8.18 which is still supported and is easy. Buy
some time. Actually all the upgrades are easy. Well up to 1.10. I
skipped 1.9 and haven't tried to go to 1.11.
Good luck

It's said here 1.11 is the recommended version of Django.
Our upgrade from 1.1 to 1.6 took much more time that expected,
and management does not want to upgrade again. In terms of best
practice
though I'd like to push for it.
* Is an upgrade from 1.6 to 1.11 as complicated as migrating from
1.1 to 1.6?
Please advise
