Hey Jason,

Python can definitely handle what you're talking about.. But before
you run off and build something like this, you might want to browse
through the web-modules list and see some of the great libraries that
are available, such as Chuck Esterbrook's webware
(http://webware.sourceforge.net) and my own weblib
(http://weblib.sourceforge.net/).. The list is at:

Of course, if you want to use Zope, there's also:
