WSGI howto has an error

Description

​http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/howto/deployment/modwsgi/

The following instructions are not correct, from what I can tell.

import os
import sys

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'mysite.settings'

import django.core.handlers.wsgi
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

path = '/path/to/mysite'
if path not in sys.path:
    sys.path.append(path)

This last block contains the error. In order to find 'mysite.settings', path should be set to '/path/to/parent/dir/of/site'.

There is a more general problem described by Russell here: ​http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/msg/aa9a45e49e94e763?hl=en_US but I did not find a ticket for it.

I think working from that thread on django-dev is the best choice here.
