Re: [JDEV] jabber for twisted

[Nick]

In the perl world, its POE. And cary is exactly right. For POE it's a 
simple matter of writting a "Filter" that will turn XML into whatever 
representation you want. Plug in Filter into POE::Component::TCP::
Client, and you have a jabber client. If this can be a focused effort 
for the python people all the better. Bringing jabber to any framework 
is a positive, and I think it's great these guys are trying to do what 
the perl jabber community never could

Not to be a wet blanket, but could someone tell me why anyone would 
want
to do this?  Twisted looks like an application layer that lets you 
build
servers and clients on top of an interconnected network of services.

Someone enlighten me?  It sounds like it is just reinventing the 
wheel,

i'm wondering what exactly is bad about diversity?
Twisted is basically an ASYNC FRAMEWORK for developing protocols.
It already has a large list of supported protocols, and i think XMPP 
would be a
valuable addition.

Twisteds event loop integrates seamlessly with most gui event loops.
in the Python world, Twisted is the way to go as far as network app 
development.
