[mod_python] global data in psp_/python.

Hi.

Is it possible to use Cookies to "simulate" real global data, as you
find in extern C?
I know static global data's is not a good solution to my problem, though....

If I had implemented an application in C++, I would have used singleton
pattern, and so on, but Python is not C++, I'm afraid.

Any suggestions to my problem?

Thanx in advance for helping me out.

Cheers,

Ole J.
