Nit: just '\n', not a Unicode string?

Nope, doesn't work, since we have a TextIOWrapper, whcih raises a ValueError if
you attempt to write str objects. This is also the reason I can't use the print
statement here, because it converts the argument given apparently to str
regardless of the kind of file-like object used.

+      file.flush()
+    finally:
+      fcntl.lockf(file, fcntl.LOCK_UN)
+
+  start_response('200 OK', [('Content-Type', 'text/plain')])
+  return ["Thanks for your submission! We'll notify you before the launch."]
