[Web-SIG] WSGI -- usable for other protocols?

[Bill Janssen]

I've been working on Python IMAP server that uses PyLucene for
indexing.  It's mainly IMAP, but also speaks a bit of HTTP for an
administrative interface.  Does it make any sense to wrap it with
WSGI?  That is, does WSGI make sense for other protocols than HTTP
(specifically IMAP)?

And, what WSGI-supporting environments will also support PyLucene (the
limiting factor is that the GCJ runtime has to be linked in, and all
threads must be GCJ threads).
