New description:

 The version of Twisted currently used in Sage is old and obsolete;
 moreover it is buggy, as our extensive tests involving running  labs for
 120 students show. The crashes of the notebook webapp go away after the
 upgrade to twisted 11.

 The twisted package is now included in the flask sagenb (#11080), so this
 ticket just removes the twisted spkg.

 See http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 devel/browse_thread/thread/98c53d17166da1b9 for the sage-devel vote.

 '''apply''':
  1. [attachment:trac-11874-remove-twisted.3.patch] to the sage root
 repository
  2. [attachment:sage-spkg-11874.patch] to the Sage library.

 And '''remove''' the twisted spkg from the standard spkgs.
