An alternative idea would be to have two separate (source) packages in sid: django and django-lts. Then django-lts could be put into backports and so maintained according to the backport policy. Maybe it should be named django-lts1.8 just in case a new upstream LTS should be packaged but the former should stay in testing and backports. Best regards Uwe
