I guess I am in the minority then.  I do plan to turn one of my larger

Out of curiosity, why did you choose to write CGI scripts or embedded
server-side scripting while standalone web servers are usually
presented as _the_ solution for Python (Django, Pylons, etc.)?

History and laziness I suppose.  My biggest project started out as Tcl
and was switched to Python around 1.5.  Besides, the boys and girls
at Apache have done a great job.  May as well build on that.  Even
if I go with a standalone server I will probably put Apache in front
of it for images, style sheets and other static content.  I also want
to look into writing Apache modules in Python some day.
