I think this is a pretty good summary; it's rare to need this (though often essential when you do) and it's also hard. TBH I'm not sure there are any sensible semantics for a lot of the cases - the best the framework can do is give the app an option for clocks, and try to give them as much info as possible about how they've advanced or not. _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
