I'm wondering about your choice of version, though: Twisted 10.2 was released in 2010. Why did you look at an old version of Twisted for a conference in 2012?

Except for this: * (R4.1): TCP and UDP are not easily interchangeable Which I don't understand at all. UDP and TCP are completely different than each other, there's no way to make them interchangeable. _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list Twisted-Python@twistedmatrix.com http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
