This would, to some extent, cut off on redundant posts to the list, as well as help spread knowledge from the more experienced to the more 'mod_python challenged' (like myself). There is no better selling argument for mod_python than a few well written lines of 'mod_python' code ...

While not the most appropriate name, why doesn't the FAQ work for you?
