Description

For the last couple of Django updates, we were trying to match issue tracker's Django version with the main site's. The main site switched to 6.0 with https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/pull/2394, and I tried to match up those changes in #284.

Django 6.0 doesn't support Python 3.11

> Django 6.0 supports Python 3.12, 3.13, and 3.14. We highly recommend, and only officially support, the latest release of each series.
>
> The Django 5.2.x series is the last to support Python 3.10 and 3.11.

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/6.0/releases/6.0/#python-compatibility

and we can't update to 3.12 because of [Trac-related limitations](https://github.com/django/code.djangoproject.com/pull/219#issuecomment-2452482455).

Keeping the match between two Django versions was a good practice, but I don't think the 6.0 update is vital, and we can continue to live with 5.2 (LTS) for a while. I just wanted to record this case and ask if anyone has any opinions about it.
