        Requirements
        ------------
        
        - Python 2.4 (May work with 2.3, but untested)
        - Django 1.0.x
        - Django-Haystack 1.0BETA
        - Xapian 1.0.13.X (May work with earlier versions, but untested)
        - mod_wsgi 1.3.X
        
        Notes
        -----
        
        - Due to an issue with mod_python causing deadlocks with Xapian (http://trac.xapian.org/ticket/185), mod_python is not supported with xapian-haystack.  It may work, with some tweaking, but your mileage will vary.
        - Because Xapian does not support simultaneous WritableDatabase connections, it is *strongly* recommended that users either set `WSGIDaemonProcess processes=1` or override the default SearchIndex class to remove the post-save and post-delete signals that cause an immediate re-index.  A sample index with signals removed can be found here: http://gist.github.com/214254. Instead, manually re-index your site content through a cronjob at pre-determined times.  A sample cronjob can be found here: http://gist.github.com/216247.
