I use Django at the Washington Post to develop interactive databases and respond to breaking news. Most of the codebase was written by Adrian Holovaty, a creator of Django, and it's by far the best codebase I've ever inherited.
The admin interface is truly great and allows the non-technical folks to easily work with data, and it's nice that it's consistent across projects. The templating was easy to train graphic designers on. I'm very happy with Django overall.
I was pretty concerned for a while about the health of Django. It's been over a year since the last feature release, but in the last month development has woken back up. Branches are getting merged to trunk, there's finally a plan for 1.0, and there are regular commits to the repository. I'm pleasantly surprised.
