Hi, if I were you, I'll go in the sense of your management because using Liferay isn't in contradiction with using Django.
In fact, I think Liferay (and any JSR 168 container) aims at federating portlets (just a kind of component after all) which may be written in any language. Just imagine Liferay replaces Django template engine : all your app (business logic + views - except template) can be written with Django. Communications between portlets is a matter of js communication and permit to set up SOA architecture based on REST, exactly the buzz words your management likes :-) And it's true that modern portlet container (JSR 286) like Liferay, jBoss... can agregate new content dynamically and allows real personalization by the end user in a very easy manner.
