In fact Shinken already support Pyro4. But there is two little things that
can be problems versus V3 :
* when we are closing the daemons, the ports are not released as in Pyro3,
so the wait timeout before reusing them are not set to 0 (last tested
version is pyro 4.3), and so we must wait 30s before restarting daemons. I
try to close all connexions in a clean way in the Shinken code, but maybe I
missed something here.
* there is no SSL support (or I miss it again), and it's a problem for a
monitoring tool (sniffers can got the full servers/IP list, and even some
passwords from monitoring checks commands).
If the two problems are fixed (in fact, the most important is the SSL
support) in a recent v4 version, we can advice to use v4 by default for
Shinken users (not RedHat ones that are in a python2.4 versions, but we
can't really help RH guys :) ).
By the way, it make me think that Pyro is in the shinken's THANKS file, but
not in a good place on our website, I'll change this. Pyro is really a great
lib, and it should be known that without it, there should be no Shinken at
all :)

Jean
