Gideon Architecture

  Gideon is based on the openacs4 and aolserver with some additional packages,
  namely ns_openssl, and most importantly "Pywx":http://pywx.idyll.org
  which embeds a python interpreter into aolserver. FTP access is provided by
  pureftp (www.pureftpd.org) (or any other ftp server, actually), the exposed   
  webservices use ZSI for soap (http://pywebsvcs.sf.net) xmlrpclib for xml-rpc   
  (http://www.pythonware.com)

  most of the community/relational work is done via the openacs apis, while
  python is used to handle the web-services and package management 
  functionality.
