As a followup, I did go ahead and convert my CGI handler to WSGI, and doing
so was not difficult at all. The steps were basically:

1. accept environ and start_response parameters in the handler's __init__
2. return output from __iter__ instead of writing it to stdout.
3. pass environ and wsgi.input to the cgi.FieldStorage() parser.

I'd still be interested in a mod_wsgi wrapper for 3rd-party CGI scripts.


Thank you,
Jeffrey
