Paste Enabled
+++++++++++++
-... what does it mean ...
+*Paste Enabled* means that a web application has a simple and
+consistent means of installation and configuration.
+
+What does this mean? Well, here's how you install the code and
+dependencies for a Paste Enabled application::
+
+ easy_install ApplicationName
+
+Here's the configure file to use that application::
+
+ [app:main]
+ use = egg:ApplicationName
+ database = ...
+ title =
+
+Once you've configured it, you can serve that application immediately
+and directly (using a simple HTTP server), or you can run it under
+SCGI, FastCGI, HTTP proxy, AJP, and other protocols.
+
+If you want to run multiple applications on the same site, you just
+create a mapping::
+
+ [app:main]
+ use = egg:Paste#urlmap
+ /forum = config:forum.ini
+ /contact = config:contact.ini
+
+A Paste Enabled application can be embedded in other applications,
+easily included in other websites, managed by simple startup/shutdown
+scripts, and easily upgraded. "Paste Enabled" means the application
+is well encapsulated, ready for distribution and reuse, and easy to
+manage.
+
+When a **framework** is Paste Enabled, it means it helps you build
+Paste Enabled applications. A good framework should guide you through
+the steps to
+
+Paste Enabled builds on other emerging standards like WSGI and Python
+Eggs.
