They also have not stepped forward for inclusion. A point needs to be made that Brian has working code and has come forward to contribute it. It also should be noted that the concepts are extremely simple here as management pools for threads and processes is not hard to grasp (a definitely knock against Twisted as their Deferred approach definitely hurts some peoples' heads no matter how much Antoine loves them =). And especially important, the proposed solution is in pure Python and does not rely exclusively on multiprocessing, thus avoids alienating other VMs beyond CPython. >> > > Inclusion of kamaelia, or twisted wholesale won't occur any time soon. I would replace "any time soon" with "ever". Both projects are massive and probably don't want to be locked into our development cycle. Both also have their own development teams and culture. Adding a single module or package by a single author is enough challenge as it is, but bringing in another team would be more than challenging. -Brett _______________________________________________ stdlib-sig mailing list stdlib-sig@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/stdlib-sig
