Wow, this is one hell of a thread. :^) FWIW, Grisha put a Bobo publisher in mod_python a couple of years ago. Thus, if you like ZPublisher-style processing, you can do it in Apache via mod_python. I outta contact him and see if he'd consider putting page templates in mod_python. Might be good for both page templates and mod_python. --Paul Phillip J. Eby wrote:

sadly the distinction between zpublisher and zserver is nowhere near as clean, i spent some time looking at it this morning trying to get my server of choice using zope. i thought it would be a mid morning hack, but the rabit hole follows the class heirarchy deeper and deeper:). all i have to show for my results is zope's output dumped to the server logs. its a start though...
hopefully we get some new religion in the publisher, please...
Hmm... Check out:
http://cvs.eby-sarna.com/pylib/ZLite/
Specifically, the ZPlumbing module, for several examples of ZPublisher run loops using CGI and two different FastCGI modules. I don't know anything about Twisted, so I couldn't tell you how easy it'd be to use the ZLite framework for this.
ZLite is the beginnings of my work on a "Zope Lite" distribution. It's sort of the "Standalone ZODB" distribution's evil twin - intended if you want to use almost anything *but* the ZODB and ZMI parts of Zope. That is, when you just want the app server without the IDE and application framework. Architecturally, it's intended for multi-process, single thread setups using Apache as a front-end, with FastCGI.
This shouldn't be considered an announcement or a release, btw. The code in CVS is production-hardened by years of service (many millions of hits served), but is utterly without documentation, nor has everything I've written been checked into CVS yet.
