-uWSGI is a fast (pure C), self-healing, developer-friendly WSGI server,
-aimed for professional Python webapp deployment and development. Over
-time it has evolved in a complete stack for networked/clustered Python
-applications, implementing message/object passing, RPC and process
-management. It uses the uwsgi (all lowercase) protocol for all the
-networking/interprocess communications.
+uWSGI is a fast, self-healing and developer/sysadmin-friendly
+application container server coded in pure C. Born as a WSGI-only
+server, over time it has evolved in a complete stack for
+networked/clustered web applications, implementing message/object
+passing, caching, RPC and process management. It uses the uwsgi (all
+lowercase; included by default in Nginx and Cherokee web servers)
+protocol for all the networking/interprocess communications.
-uWSGI can be integrated with various webservers (apache2, nginx, cherokee
-and lighttpd modules available).
+uWSGI is designed to be fully modular. This means that different
+plugins can be used in order to add compatibility with tons of different
+technology on top of the same core.
-Note: this script only builds the uWSGI server without any webserver
-modules.
+This script builds plugins for Python 2.6, Python 3.2 (optional, pass
+PYTHON32=yes to enable; requires python3 to be installed), Perl PSGI
+(disabled, works only with Perl from -current), and Ruby Rack.
