Well the postgresql.org infrastructure is running debian stretch and all our current django applications are on django 1.8.18 in a custom (but internally packaged) virtualenv - we have not yet decided on what version we will move to next (because 1.8 will be EoS'd in April) but it will likely be an LTS version.
Just to keep you updated, we do now have fully supported 1.11 out in production for a number of our sites, so that's the current target.
Currently we only do 1.11 on python2, we do not have a python3 environment set up for it yet. 1.11 on py3 will be the next step following this one, but we aren't quite there yet.
