mod_python development is moribund, mod_wsgi has an active helpful
maintainer. It's reasonably straightforward to configure mod_wsgi to get
control only for a certain portion of the URL space, getting that config
correct for mod_python/Django is not so straightforward. You can also
configure mod_wsgi to operate in daemon mode, so that all of the
mod_wsgi/Django request handling is done in independent processes distinct
from the normal Apache child processes, which can help immeasurably in
eliminating conflicts in libraries, etc. between PHP, Python and whatever
else is running in Apache.
