[Web-SIG] WSGI in standard library

[Guido van Rossum]

Sorry folks, I'm going to have to do some serious load shedding if I
ever want to get the Py3K effort under way. You are going to have to
argue amongst yourselves about the best wsgi reference implementation
to put into the standard library.

As a starting point, the code you reference seems particularly underdocumented.
