>  * mod_wsgi is better in every way.
>  * mod_python hasn't had a release since 2007, or a commit since 2008;
> it's a dead end. The Apache Foundation board voted this month to

>  * if people are still using it in production in 2012, it is easy to
> maintain an external handler.

> I'm proposing the following very predictable timeline:
>
> Django 1.3
>    Use of the modpython handler raises a PendingDeprecationWarning.
> Update the docs to discourage people from using it.
> Django 1.4
>    Use of the modpython handler raises a DeprecationWarning.
> Django 1.5
>    Remove the modpython handler from Django (and put it on bitbucket/github?)
>
> If someone magically steps up and brings it back to life, we can
> always halt/reverse the process.
>
> Objections?
