You need Python installed, though you can do that yourself if you want. The real issue is being able to have long-running processes. Most commercial hosts don't allow, or otherwise hinder long-running processes -- in Webware's case, the AppServer. Some hosts kill processes that run too long, so you'll want to ask them about that. You also want mod_rewrite installed, as that's fairly important for cleaning up the URL and if you wanted to serve the root page from Webware. You can control mod_rewrite from an .htaccess file, as long as it's installed. You'll be able to use the C-based CGI adapter, since you probably can't install mod_webkit. But that should be fine. That pretty much covers it. There isn't a list of hosts that support this. Most do, but then I imagine there's a healthy minority who probably would. If you find some, please post them to the list or put them on the Wiki, as I think other people would be interested. Some of the places that host Zope (but not necessarily as their primary business) may very well support Webware, as they are similar (from the host's perspective).
