Re: mod_python wont use version 2.5.4 on windows

All I'm saying is that it's case-specific.  If you never need to be
rendering plain text, and you're handling your JS/CSS whatever on your own,
then great.
And if you want plain text at times, then just throw a req.content_type =
"text/html" in some basic header include file.  The end. :)
