I wrote up some thoughts on this here: http://clemesha.org/blog/2009/apr/23/Django-on-Twisted-using-latest-twisted-web-wsgi/ basically it comes down to running Django off the very latest WSGI code (in the trunk still) found in twisted.web, which I've found to work very well. Also see here: http://blog.dreid.org/2009/03/twisted-django-it-wont-burn-down-your.html hope this helps some, Alex > > Thanks, > Dan > > _______________________________________________ > Twisted-Python mailing list > Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com > http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python > -- Alex Clemesha clemesha.org _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
