Start by reading recent discussion:
http://groups.google.com/group/django-users/browse_frm/thread/dfd352162db59ed7
I'll post more tomorrow if have time, have to do some things tonight
and then out most of the day tomorrow.
In short though, no support for dynamic transient daemon processes
yet, ie.,:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/issues/detail?id=22
so, can't get away from using WSGIDaemonProcess for each instance at
the moment.
One can use dynamic setting of WSGIApplicationGroup via a variable set
by mod_rewrite to select daemon process as well as set some name
relevant to settings file. WSGI application wrapper can then be used
to override DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE.
So, information is in that post, you just need to adapt it to your
situation. That is, use SERVER_NAME rather than REMOTE_USER from
authentication as basis of selecting daemon process group. You could
though skip the rewrite maps that allowed multiple levels of
indirection and made it further dynamic in nature.
