Here's what I'm doing. My (django pertinent part of) apache configuration
looks like this:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/usr/people/example/www"
ServerName www.example.com
ServerAlias example.com *.example.com
ServerAlias example.net *.example.net
CustomLog /var/log/apache/example/access_log combined
ErrorLog /var/log/apache/example/error_log
# other, static media
<Location "/">
SetHandler mod_python
PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE example.settings
PythonPath "sys.path+['/usr/people/example']"
PythonDebug On
PythonAutoReload On
</Location>
# django admin interface media
<Location "/media">
SetHandler None
</Location>
# apache directory icons, etc.
<Location "/icons">
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Location "/images">
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Location "/static">
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Location "/docs">
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Directory /usr/people/example/www>
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
This allows serving regular files from /media, /icons, /images, /static
and /docs
You could also use a LocationMatch directive for *.xml. For serving the
main index.html, I use the flat pages middleware.
