No, I didn't see the module. To be honest I didn't look at the Python Package Index but used Google to search for epoll wrappers. I found the wrapper in Twisted on my disk and two other wrappers. One was written in pure C and the other one used ctypes. Your wrapper is a good implementation. I even found an inconvenience in my implementation when I studied your code. My wrapper raised an exception when a closed fd was removed with EPOLL_CTL_DEL. > I would also claim that adding a new interface to accomplish the same > task is not more pythonic. But I did write the python-epoll module in > question, so I may be a bit biased. I agree with Gregory on that part of your answer.
