mod_python upstream has been inactive for five years, since Graham Dumpleton went to work on mod_wsgi. IMO it is long past time to retire mod_python in Fedora. But the following packages still depend on it:
Source : glump-0.9.11-10.fc17.src.rpm Source : koji-1.6.0-3.fc17.src.rpm Source : viewvc-1.1.13-1.fc17.src.rpm Source : yawn-0-0.3.20120227svn561.fc18.src.rpm
I haven't checked whether these are simply to convert over to WSGI or not. Does anybody want to maintain mod_python? If not, I'm going to retire it.

it support wsgi since a few versions ( using it in production ), but due to various issues, consume lots of memory :/

YAWN still needs mod_python. WSGI patch is welcome, YAWN is quite small script. Both maintainers are not skilled Pythonists, especially when it comes to HTTP services. Any volunteer?

Last call. If anybody wants this package to remain in Fedora > 17, please take ownership of the package in the pkgdb. Otherwise I will start the EOL process next week.
