Ok, that would explain that. Kind of annoying that the change was made, 
although I do think that calling the handler mod_python makes more sense.

I am, but at the time I was going on the documentation in the psp example.
Going back and looking at the examples page on the site, I see where it says
that it requires mod_python 3.x. Somehow I overlooked that. Maybe someone 
can add a note to the comments in index.py in psp_example saying it requires 
mod_python 3.x?

Well, it is and it isn't an issue. Playing with it, it seems that the 
following URLs will not work:

http://beta.rvmotel.com/
http://beta.rvmotel.com/index
http://beta.rvmotel.com/index.py

But the following URLs do:

http://beta.rvmotel.com/index/index
http://beta.rvmotel.com/index.py/index

Not a big deal, but not really ideal, either. It means I'll have to use 
AddHandler and have an index.html or index.cgi that redirects the user to
the real index page. From my own developing standpoint, I'd rather not have
to do that. But from the standpoint of the people I'm doing this for, it
doesn't matter.

Thanks again for your help.
