Just spoke with my department and looks like we still want to go with a server scripting method. Although MVC may be better fit, for the sake of the learning curve, we want to use a PSP style method.
So as of now we are looking at using FreeBSD, MySQL, and some form of Python that will allow us to achieve great performance serving 30million page loads / month. -Adam -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
