PyWX is an embedded Python interpreter in Aolserver. It plays well with Aolserver's threaded architecture and provides access to the filters, db connection pooling, network access APIs, and whatnot that makes Aolserver so cool. A unique thing about it, in contrast to a run-of-the-mill embedding, is the extensions to allow Python to freely call Tcl functions and vice versa. It hasn't been updated in quite a while, but hopefully the mod_python team will take some ideas from it while adapting to the new threaded Apache2.
