Welcome to the archived Wiki of the Webware for Python project.
This Wiki has been created by Ian Bicking in October 2001, using the Webware framework. Its purpose was to facilitate discussion about Webware: its design, its use and its future. This Wiki was intended to supplement, not replace, the Webware homepage, webware lists and docs . It collected interesting ideas and recipes by Webware users and developers until May 2010. It now has been closed and archived as a read-only reference and historical document. Please note that many links are now broken, and some of the content may not be applicable to the latest versions of Webware for Python any more.
