 I recommend running Django/Turbogears/etc. under Wing using a single-threaded 
server. If your webframework of choice doesn't ship with such a thing, you 
can use wsgiref (included in 2.5):

http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/wsgiref/

You'll also want to disable any debugging and code reloading. Please consult 
your framework's documentation on how to do all this.

Let me also urge you to consider using your framework's debugging.  Most 
frameworks have very nice browser debug pages that show tracebacks & stack 
data, etc..  Coupled with code reloading and the external editor of your 
choice, it makes for a good Python web development environment.  No, it's not 
Wing, but it works well.
