OK, I agree to remove SQLiteSession. I'll put it on my own website for

However, this means that the PythonOption session must be extended for
third-party developers to be able to provide their own session
implementation.
I want this feature added for 3.3 anyway.

I would agree with that totally. As a long time user of mod_python,
I would
add that I personally disagree with including Sessions, psp,
publisher, etc.
in the base distribution, since these things seem to have held up
releases.
I don't use any of those things as all with mod_python, and I
don't see
how they're necessary to use mod_python for what it's for: creating
apache
extension modules in Python.

If that's the case, there definitely needs to be a central place for
contributed code like this. I think a contrib directory is
convenient, but
I also know the issues of who decides what to put in there, how much
do put
include, how do you gently waive off support requests for its contents.
But there needs to be something. What do you see on the list all
the time?
People asking how do I implement database pooling, how to I use
sessions,
here's my database implementation for sessions. I say put the publisher
there as well, since it doesn't have anything to do with the
philosophy of
mod_python, even by Grisha's definition, and solves some release
issues with
mod_python itself (can anyone say imports?).
