CGI/modpython ???

[Michael Hall]

I've got to stop replying to my own emails ...

Anyway, further to my last two posts (see below), I have another question
or two:

- modpython hasn't been updated for a while ... is it still being
developed?

- where is HTML-embedded Python at? modpython's author refers to several
different systems in circulation and a lack of consensus on how to do it.

Thanks again

Mick
