[I sent this yesterday, but that was before I was subscribed.  Sorry if
it ends up being a dupe.]

Right now, we're looking for a way to wrap SCGI around our WSGI
application.  To head off questions, we've tried:

 - A py2exe ISAPI module
   No go, gross instability
 - FCGI
   Window's FCGI won't work because Python on windows doesn't have
socket.fromfd()

So, I wanted to try SCGI.  That's easy, right? Paste has an SCGI server
that wraps WSGI apps.  But it requires python-scgi.  Which requires a
compiled C module.  Which apparently hasn't been ported to Windows.  I
found a pure-python SCGI server
(http://www.cherokee-project.com/download/pyscgi/ ) but its semantics
are different than python-scgi's, so that means reimplementing the WSGI
wrapper from the ground up, something I'd like to avoid, both for
initial effort and bug-stomping reasons.  So, I thought I'd check first
to see if anyone had any efforts in the pipeline to port python-scgi to
windows.

Please? :)
