There are many python web frameworks available. All you need is to create a web app with one of these, and then distribute it with its own built-in server (all these frameworks include a small development server). If you use a database, you should use sqlite, which comes already included in within python. Actually, there only difference is that instead of serving your site through a web server, you are serving it through a built-in server, included within your app distribution. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
