Shalabh, Thanks for your response. Maybe it is not worth my tackling Twisted now. I thought it might be easier and faster to configure and integrate Quixote with Twisted than Apache, and then tackle the Apache installation/configuration/etc later, once I've seen more success stories with Quixote and Apache 2.X. Speaking of Quixote (and I'll follow Shalabh's advice and start with Quixote 2.x) and Apache, anyone have any preferences for Apache 1.3.X vs Apache 2.X, and can anyone summarize the difference (in development time, capabilities, speed) of using mod_python vs SCGI with Apache 1.3.X or 2.0.X?
