I've been using Django since v1.0, and when each major version is released, I run through the release notes to see what I need to change. Russell is correct that most things will work from one version to the next, but I like to keep as up to date as possible to minimize my risk of hitting a deprecated feature. Once I build a checklist, I can go through it for each app I support. Doesn't take too long, and I feel I gain a better understanding of the new features this way.
Yeah this is by far the best way of doing things. Plus it has the advantage of becoming familiar with everything that has been added.
The only time I found upgrading a chore was when I had to change all my url templates tags to have quotes around the URL name. That took ages. Thankfully that sort of change is rare and I really should have used the future import to get around it completely.
