This site might be of interest: Well... Here the uptime benefit from using several servers is not eceonomically justifiable. I am right now at the phase of trying to minimize the downtime with given hardware resources. This is not flying; downtime does not kill anyone. I just want to avoid choosing tools which belong more to the problem than to the solution set. - Ville -- Ville Voipio, Dr.Tech., M.Sc. (EE) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
