28743	"Clarify the term ""deployment server"" in the documentation"	Thomas Güttler		"From the docs:

What is a ""deployment server""?


I tried tried to find the answer in the ""Deployment checklist"" (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/howto/deployment/checklist/)
But no luck. There the I find

""application server"" and ""web server"" and ""development server"".

... I am confused :-)

A glossary or definition of the basics words would make it clear.
