100% Python SCGI implementation

I've written and uploaded the first version of PySCGI, a 100% Python version of the SCGI protocol.

The main differences with the original scgi Python module are:

• PySCGI is 100% Python: the original module depends on a C file that is compiled into a dynamic library. It makes the distribution a bit more difficult under some circumstances.
• It's a thread based server rather than a processes based one. (fork() based).
• BSD licensed rather than CNRI Open Source Licensed, so you get rid of the choice of venue clause (and use one of the most extended and well understood licenses).
• Includes a little helper to handle POST requests.

The sources are available in the Cherokee repository.

We'll be using this instead of the original module for writing our administration web interfaces, so it'll be well supported. Enjoy it! :-)
