That seems to be a common thread...

httpd has a very good reference guide IMO but user guide material is thin
in some important areas, including proxy.  nginx documentation has very
simple examples to get you started quickly.  Perhaps worse, some Python
web-related projects don't show good and/or modern httpd information.

Anyway, I put some quick notes up today at

http://emptyhammock.com/projects/info/pyweb/index.html

I'm highly allergic to mod_rewrite and running web apps inside a web
server, so this won't ever cover that unless there's a need for very
selective use of mod_rewrite.

If anyone cares to look, I'm curious about other [sub-]topics that would be
good to cover.
