2.4 is good. Eventually I will upgrade to eggs but I'm making enough
changes right now to make me crazy.
maybe I am over thinking this problem. I needed a CGI scripts to go to
a predictable place so I can build the wrappers. For all I care, that
could be another Python module in the site-packages hierarchy (assuming
they are executable). But I have separate targets for the images etc..
The reason being that I organize my sites as
/var/www/{html,data,images)/<site>. Don't ask.
So what I have seen so far says that to be able to take data from a
series of directories scatter it to other directories may be out of
scope. It's okay. If I have to write a wrapper, it won't be the first
time.
