@nafmo Hey, I'm back at my desk. I'm going to ask dumb questions to make sure I understand. Are you able to share any links to what you currently have? Either the existing CGI code, or your newfangled wsgi experiments?
One thing: uwsgi is one of the more powerful and flexible Python app servers (e.g. it is actually a multi-language framework, also supporting Lua, PHP, etc). This makes it complicated. My knee-jerk would be to start with something simpler like gunicorn.
