I have not looked at "ModPythonAppServer", but embedding Webkit into Apache sounds like a much improved solution.
For those people with a dedicated server (or control over a server), then running the AppServer as a seperate process is not that big an issue. For everyone else, however, it is a strong deterrent. Getting a host provider that will host such a solution is not simple, and you still have to deal with starting the AppServer on server reboots (and in my case managing the process without knowledge of the process id, but that's a separate question). >From what little I know about FastCGI from fixing it to get it working as an adapter, it seems like it would provide 90% of the solution of avoiding the seperate AppServer process - managing the starting and stopping of the appserver process, and the communication of requests and responses. So to reframe Geoff's question - does anyone have the AppServer embedded into apache, or have an idea of the problems with such an approach, whether via mod_python, mod_webkit, or fastcgi?
