Does Django need an IDE?
It's great that your company wants to contribute to the community, but I have to say that I don't see what a 'Django IDE' would achieve. There are already plugins for all the main editors and IDEs to support Django - from Vim to TextMate to NetBeans - and these provide syntax highlighting, indentation, shortcuts and snippets for both Python source and Django templates. These can always do with more work, of course, so perhaps your efforts would be best focused on improving one of these.
My company is evaluating the possibility of developing a specialized IDE for Django. 
So we would like to ask Django users: 

Do you feel the need for a specialized IDE for Django?
Would you be willing to pay for it, or would you only consider free a open-source product? 
What Django-specific features are you missing currently in your development tools?
