Think of something like MyYahoo: a personalized portal with news
aggregator, weather forecast, comics, etc. Now instead of visiting a
web site, think of all of it being sent daily as an email. It does
have a web interface, but mostly for selecting your content: this is
my location for weather, these are the news feeds I'm interested in,
these are the comics I like, save my preferences, and the server takes
care of the rest. Does such a thing exist? (Even in other non-Python
languages?) I've tried Freshmeat, and the other usual sources, but so
far, nothing. If there isn't any such creature, I'll write my own, but
I wanted to first check that I'm not re-inventing the wheel.
Thanks,

I've posted this question on the mod_python mailing list but didn't get
much response, so I thought I'd post it here.
It seems to me that for each path element in a URI a mod_python handler
will be invoked. This applies to PythonAuthenHandler,
PythonHeaderParserHandler and so on.
Since I'm making a database request in my PythonAuthenHandler, this
quickly becomes a problem.
Example: http://lucene.moonspawn.scanmine.com/ =>
AuthenHandler::authenhandler called: 1
index got called once http://lucene.moonspawn.scanmine.com...dler.py/search =>
AuthenHandler::authenhandler called: 1
AuthenHandler::authenhandler called: 2
/search got called once http://lucene.moonspawn.scanmine.com/search.html => (using mod_rewrite)
AuthenHandler::authenhandler called: 1
AuthenHandler::authenhandler called: 2
AuthenHandler::authenhandler called: 3
/search got called once
I get the same behavior on three separate installations
So, either I've got a miss-configuration which results in multiple calls
to handlers or.., this is expected behavior, and there is a technique to
avoid this or..., this is expected and, for reasons that escapes me,
desired behavior.
I'd greatly appreciate any help and suggestion
regards

What you are looking for is a *good* content management system,
integrated with a mailing list manager. Perhaps there is something
along these lines for Zope/Plone, but even if it exists, you'll
probably need to customize it heavily.

I don't think you'll find anything (although I'd love to be proved
wrong).
I've nearly completed a 'login module' for use with Python CGIs. It is
very easy to use (simplest use add three lines of code to the start of
your script - user is then required to login). It has built in support
for saving user preferences. It *will* feature full admin screens and
optional client side javascript encryption for secured password
transmission. (It's done - just needs glueing together). It uses
cookies and adding 'session persistence' would be very easy.
I'd love to work on Python CGI frameworks for this sort of project -
preferably in a modular way.
You can see a quick example of what I've done so far at : http://www.voidspace.org.uk/cgi-bin/jalopy/jalopy.py
(This is an online Content Management System that allows editing and
creating of webpages using the Kupu WSYWIG editor). It only implements
login and logout - but the infastructure behind it is quite complete.
I'd like to see a nice Webamil application etc using python
(preferably straight CGI) - and would like to find people to work
with. We would probably benefit from using a framework like Quixote,
but I haven't quite got around to learning it......
If you are itnerested then email me ( mike AT pcbloes DOT com) or if
you would liek to go alone but are still interested in just the login
stuff then also email me.

What you are describing is Zope (perhaps with Plone add-on).
As with any "powerful" application framework it will require
you to customize it for your purposes. www.zope.org www.plone.org
