Idea
Historically, Python web application frameworks have been a problem for new Python users because, generally speaking, the choice of web framework would limit the choice of usable web servers, and vice versa. Python applications were often designed for either CGI, FastCGI, mod_python or even custom API interfaces of specific web-servers.
WSGI was created as a low-level interface between web servers and web applications or frameworks to promote common ground for portable web application development.

Famous quotes containing the word idea:
“Nobody can resist a ripe idea. The idea today is change.”
—Tansu Ciller (b. 1946)
“For it does not follow because many books are written by persons born in America that there exists an American literature. Books which imitate or represent the thoughts and life of Europe do not constitute an American literature. Before such can exist, an original idea must animate this nation and fresh currents of life must call into life fresh thoughts along its shores.”
—Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)
“True, there are architects so called in this country, and I have heard of one at least possessed with the idea of making architectural ornaments have a core of truth, a necessity, and hence a beauty, as if it were a revelation to him. All very well perhaps from his point of view, but only a little better than the common dilettantism.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
