I don't see anyone suggesting that mod_wsgi be removed from EPEL.  I
explicitly stated that I didn't think it should be pulled from EPEL at
all.  RHEL does not control what packages are deployed in EPEL, it is
a separate entity and as such it is up to the drivers of EPEL to
determine what packages are in EPEL, not RHEL.  For the record, RHEL5
ships with mod_python 3.2.8 dynamically linked.

Currently mod_wsgi is not distributed with RHEL though there is a bug
request to have it included in the base distribution [1].  As such, I
am working to deploy updated version of mod_wsgi to Fedora so that it
has the greatest chance of being included in RHEL6.
