Well, I imagine the main requirement for that is a good way to do session
affinity across multiple servers.  I've looked for existing solutions but
haven't yet found anything very satisfying.  Does anyone know of anything
I've missed?  All I want is something that can pull a session key out of a
URL, look it up in some kind of shared table, and forward to the right
host...  surely this is a common requirement?  I guess the problem could
be sidestepped by using numbered hostnames (www1, www2, etc).  But that's
ugly.

Once you've gotten the Smalltalk religion, it would be a travesty to go
back to Python.  Come to the Seaside...

Seriously, the more of a workout Seaside gets from real enterprise use,
the more bugs we shake out and components we add, the happier I'll be.  So
by all means, please, dive in.

Cheers,
