Don't forget about jython.

Apache [12].x + <Servlet container of choice> + Jython is a great
combination.

There are several open source servlet containers, including Tomcat and
JBoss. There is reasonably detailed documentation on embedding Tomcat
in IIS, Apache, iPlanet, etc.

It's also well supported on Windows AND *nix.

If you're python stuff is pure python (<= 2.1), then Jython/J2EE could
be just what you're looking for.
