Oh -- thanks for the reply, Ric! Sorry to edit my post underneath you apparently while you were responding.
Ok I'm going to try just dropping in mod_python for Windows. I got the impression from previous discussions that doing it for US was a project, but maybe things have changed since those posts.
I'll post back and let you know.

Nevermind -- I realized I can just use python/CGI!
It's probably slower than a mod_python solution, but in a one-user scenario, I hope it's fine.
I do want to distribute the results so I'll need to come up with a bundling solution. If that is something that anyone is interested in hearing about, reply and let me know.
Just for reference, here's about all I currently know about running python as a CGI handler on windows:

(replace perl references with python)

Hi guys, I just discovered the project and I've been searching the forums and wiki. I see one or two abandoned attempts to produce a python plugin, and a little discussion indicating a desire to keep the package focused on PHP.
Is python something you maintainers would even want in the project if I made it?
How involved would it be for me to do, and where would I start gathering info on how to do it?
Why I ask: I'm starting a project for which I'd much rather use python (including pywin32-level capabilities) than PHP.
My technical level: experienced apache admin and professional coder
Thanks!
Mike
How feasible would it be for me to make a python plugin?

Ok, I haven't tested with the win32com module yet, but simply getting mod_python running was easy:
1. Download the win32 build of mod_python from here:
http://httpd.apache.org/modules/python-download.cgi
2. When the installer asks you where your apache installation is, point it to
(Where UNISERVER_FOLDER is the folder on disk where you've put your Uniform Server). This simply tells the installer where to find the /modules directory off of your apache2 directory, which is where mod_python.so belongs
3. Add the following line to apache.conf:
4. Set the handling method of your choice as described here:
