I have occasionally pointed it out that I believe it is possibly
wrong, but no one yet that I am aware of who is connected with Django
development has acknowledged that this may be the case even though in
the past I have asked for someone who knows better to comment. I don't
personally use Django for anything nor know the code in any detail so
I can't back up my observations with any proof and have been waiting
for anyone connected with actual Django development to acknowledge
that my comments may be true to any degree and start an informed
conversation about it. Since there has been silence I have only been
able to take it that people either don't really care or disagree and
that prefork is seen as the only safe way to use Django. I haven't
created a ticket as I saw the mailing list as a preferred place for
initial discussion especially when I have seen tickets where comments
were added taking issue with people using it for conversations.

So, if I knew for sure if my complaint was even half valid I would
create a ticket, but I don't know as no one with any authority has
responded. By responding are you acknowledging that Django probably is
okay to use with worker MPM or are there still issues with database
caching or other areas?

BTW, mod_python 3.1.3 was released almost 3 1/2 years ago. Although
mod_python 3.1.4 was released 2 1/2 years ago, it only contained a
security bug fix with code otherwise exactly the same. Given that
there have been two major releases and three minor releases since then
those 3.1.X versions are looking quite old.
