Like many websites, the python.org domain consists of a number of 
subdomains with several different webservers on various hosts.  AFAIK, 
the main www.python.org server is currently all (or mainly) static 
content served by Apache, although the static files are, in part, 
generated by a home-grown content management system powered by CPython.  
I'm not sure about the details of the other servers.  For example, both 
bugs.python.org and hg.python.org have CPython applications behind them: 
Roundup and Mercurial.

FTR, the whole python.org web domain is being redesigned so the details 
of what is under the covers will be changing.  Jesse Noller posted about 
the redesign process some months ago:
