It's the docs are poor, the actual procedure is very easy.

Eg. if you installed php on apache, your process may be to apt-get or build from source a mod_php then get the relevant LoadModule line into your apache config.

For python you'd do the same, except you'd use mod_wsgi instead of php.

Part of the problem with python is there are so many ways to achieve the same thing. No doubt others are reading this and thinking "no, you should do x" - hell i'm feeling that myself as i type! This highlights the fact there just is:

    1) Too little documentation
    2) Too little info on what approaches work best in what situations
