Re: running Django 1.5.1, considering upgrade to 1.5.4. feedback?

You are incorrect when you say "the security related items on the
release notes from 1.5.2 up to 1.5.4 did not
seem critically urgent".

Francois get's it right - they may be non critically urgent for *your*
installation - but for a live, web facing system they are important.

And that's the factor you have to judge the upgrade on.

Be aware that 1.6 will be available soon (within a couple of months on
the outside), that does have some big improvements (and the security
patches above are part of that).

You can read about what changes it has in it here:

From this perspective it is natural that anarchism be marked by
spontaneity, differentiation, and experimentation that it be marked by
an expressed affinity with chaos, if chaos is understood to be what
lies outside or beyond the dominant game or system. Because of the
resistance to definition and categorisation, the anarchist principle
has been variously interpreted as, rather than an articulated
position, "a moral attitude, an emotional climate, or even a mood".
This mood hangs in dramatic tension between utopian hope or dystopian
nihilism...
