Hi Graham - thanks for the quick reply!

Your response is what I expected (sharing of data between child processes),
just wanted to confirm the my understanding with the experts. Thanks, the
PythonImport is actually exactly what I need for the watchdog thread.

However, it should be possible to share state between apache child processes
by using something like memcached right?

Thanks,
Tom
