Do you really want to go as far as integrating tightly with Apache, or will
CGI-based mechanisms work just as well? Take a look at my Web modules overview
page which attempts to summarise the different Python Web development options:

I can't personally recommend any of the packages you mention as I haven't tried
any of them, although the most recent information I can find about each of them
is given on the above page. Recently, I have been working a little with Webware
and I do believe that it has promise for developing sophisticated applications.
