| 7 The modules described in this chapter provide various services to | |
| 8 World-Wide Web (WWW) clients and/or services, and a few modules | |
| 9 related to news and email. They are all implemented in Python. Some | |
| 10 of these modules require the presence of the system-dependent module | |
| 11 \code{sockets}, which is currently only fully supported on Unix and | |
| 12 Windows NT. Here is an overview: | |
