Title: Message
An installer would probably work as long as the documentation addresses why the application is configured in the manner it is. And, webware documentation needs a little work. Either way, need to be as inviting to developers as can be - quick ramp-up time via good documentation etc. Would help in adoption rate of the platform.

IMHO the main reason that there is not port for Webware is that the directory structure if not Linux or distro friendly.  The docs should be seperate and Webware itself should just be installed as a Python package.

But I DON"T like using it that way.  I like just extracting a tarball into /usr/local or c:\Webware and making an App Directory in /home/Webware.  I think most of the developers also use Webware in a similar manner.

Rather then a distro specific port how about an installer?
1) Pick Webware app
2) Pick Python Dir
3) enter extra Python path
4) pick a work dir

Thanks for the input. Good to know it will work after some tinkering.

Would be better adoption if there would be a port available. Surprised that
webware doesn't have a port while Twisted, 4suite, HTMLgen, Albatross,
Quixote, and Zope do.

I'm running Webware of FreeBSD, too, without any problems.   apxs was
in a strange spot and I had a little bump in trying to build
mod_webkit, but other than that everything was fine.
