I agree. Part of the reason Plone was really popular because it's so easy to install, and behave like normal Windows software. This means daemon-like software always present as Windows Service, and get started/stopped via familiar interface. Django so far has not as easy as it could be. Packaging all-in-one (Python + eveything needed) with installation script + shortcuts on Start-Program with nice icons, traybar monitor utility ala Apache, and .CHM document would be awesome.

Hi Ian. Thanks for your reply. It does, however I was looking at this
from the perspective of running the small httpserver as its own service
when Django is installed on a Windows machine for development. Is there
any interest in this?

Hi David,

I don't use Windows myself, but I could definitely see some use in
this for our friends in the Windows world.
