On a second reading I realized that I oversimplified how Apache needs to be restarted. There's several django hosting mechanisms to choose from -- mod_python requires a restart for new code to take effect, but there's various WSGI setups automatically will reload / restart when your code is changed: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ReloadingSourceCode Anyhow, that's overkill for a beginning user, but there it is :) Glad django is working out for you!
