Thanks for thinking about that.  Mike Hansen also spent a lot of time
over the summer rewriting the notebook in Pylons.

The Sage notebook will switch from twisted web2 to *something* else
for the actual web server.  I have not decided what that something
else will be, except that it should be WSGI complaint.

My immediate goal with separating out the notebook is to
as-soon-as-possible make something stable that can be shipped with
Sage.   The main motivation for separating out the notebook first is
to make it easier for other people (like you, Ondrej, etc.) to
contribute to the notebook.   I would like this separated-out version
to be included in Sage-4.1.3.

When you started
http://github.com/TimDumol/sage-notebook-django-branch did you first
create a fully functional version of the Sage notebook separate from
the rest of Sage, then work from there?  Or did you dive in, and
create a massive amount of work for yourself to get to an
again-functional version of the notebook?
