ANNOUNCE: Mod_python 3.2.7
The Apache Software Foundation and The Apache HTTP Server Project are pleased to announce the 3.2.7 release of mod_python. Mod_python 3.2.7 is considered a stable release, suitable for production use. Mod_python is an Apache HTTP Server module that embeds the Python language interpreter within the server. With mod_python you can write web-based applications in Python that will run many times faster than traditional CGI and will have access to advanced features such as ability to maintain objects between requests, access to httpd internals, content filters and connection handlers. The 3.2.7 release has many new features, feature enhancements, fixed bugs and other improvements over the previous version. See Appendix A of mod_python documentation for more details. Mod_python 3.2.7 is released under Apache License version 2.0. Mod_python 3.2.7 is available for download from: http://httpd.apache.org/modules/python-download.cgi More information about mod_python is available at: http://httpd.apache.org/modules/ Many thanks to Jim Gallacher, Graham Dumpleton, Nicolas Lehuen and everyone else who contributed to and helped test this release, without your help it would not be possible!

We've been talking about moving modpython.org to apache infrastructure for years, it's just always ended up being a lower priority thing that never got done. modpython.org isn't much of a site at this point, but if someone would be willing to step up and dedicate some serious time to web design and content, perhaps it would make it worth it to actually do the work of moving it...

Could we run mod_python on apache.org's site, like, say, the current version? ;-) It'd be nice to get live demo's running of various handlers.

Looks good. As soon as you make the official announcement I'll create branches/3.2.x in svn and we can start on 3.3.

Re: [DRAFT] ANNOUNCE: Mod_python 3.2.7
Will you also be putting the new 3.2.7 HTML/PDF docs on http://modpython.org/ ? It also might be useful if you provide a link to Appendix C along with the announcement so people can easily find the what's new information. Oh, and for the older docs on the website, is the 3.2 documentation really release 3.2? Because the first HTML page says 3.1.3. And while you're updating the website, what about http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-53 The link to SVN is now there, but the JIRA link is not. Being able to at least browse the issue list can be important for users, even if they are not on the python-dev list. -- Deron Meranda
