Both "best" and "better" (that website and you, respectively) omit mention of the criteria used for the evaluation. To determine what is "best" you must first answer "for what?" (Also, it is reasonable to use /both/ apache and python together, with mod_python or mod_wsgi, etc...) Regards, ~Simon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
