One question popped into my mind. One of the core idea behind WSGI is the pluggability of components respecting the interface proposed by PEP 333. I wonder if there was reason not to try a different WSGI server when facing a limitation with wsgiref rather than using a proprietary module? CherryPy server or another does not matter. Of course since I have no clue of your infrastructure and design I'm not judging here but your feedback would be interesting on that particular case. I'm intrigued :) Thanks, - Sylvain _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
