My church server runs Ubuntu 6.06 (old I know) and it has /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_expires.so as part of the normal apache package. Perhaps someone with a newer Ubuntu can help.

There are two ways to go about this:

Long cache time (only ask for files periodically):

# Configure Expires Header for PDFs
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 1 months"
ExpiresByType image/jpg "access plus 1 months"
ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 1 months"
ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 1 months"
ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 1 months"
ExpiresByType text/js "access plus 1 months"

Etags (detect changed files):

# Configure Etags to manage browser caches
FileETag MTime Size

(Contrary to the example,) I use etags for images, css and js files and
use Expires headers for other statics files like PDF and SWFs.  You
might need to add mod_expires depending on your setup.

I use the apache config file configured by this:

apache serves them directly. This is not a web2py issue but an apache
issue.

Clarify this a little.  Is Apache serving the static files or is web2py
serving them through Apache?

In my setup apache+mod_wsgi serve static files. How do I make sure
apache sends a header which sets a long cache time?
