Darcs send to HTTP POST seems to me to be the most useful for

Is there a production-ready implementation of the glue receive darcs
send's HTTP POST and feed it into a darcs apply?
I've got most of the parsing logic needed for Python (as a Django view,
which shouldn't be terribly far from any other Python web framework's
request object structure) (and which I did test against darcs send's
output). It still needs "robustification" work, which I haven't done
yet, but is on my "near term" todo list. What I need to add is simple
sanity checking to make sure it is grabbing the right payload (by
double-checking the MIME content type and/or name, probably).
Actually, since my "test script" is short enough, why I don't I just
paste it here for anyone interested (its just about the same code if you
were to iterate over an IMAP mailbox of messages, using Python's
imaplib, in RFC822 format, as well):
from django.http import Http404, HttpResponse
from email.parser import Parser
def test_darcs_send(request):
p = Parser()
email = p.parsestr(request.raw_post_data)
print email.keys()
print email['From']
print email['Subject']
print email['DarcsURL'] # repository darcs send believes it is sending
to
print email.is_multipart() # darcs send sends multipart emails
# the payload of a message is its body
# for a multipart email, the payload is returned as a python
list of Messages
# Message 0 should be the main body,
# Message 1 is where we expect the dpatch to live
# decode=True decodes the message according to the MIME information
# For instance, darcs patches are sent as quoted-printable
print email.get_payload()[1].get_payload(decode=True)
raise Http404
