Note that currently twisted is very good, there's nearly no dependency
except for pyopenssl which is of course a must-have, so it's fine. nevow
depends on twisted which is fine too. zopeinterfaces is the only
annoyance, I don't want more than zopeinterfaces as annoyances.

Believe me, zope.interface is far less of an annoyance than the NIH mess we had
before it.  There are deb and rpm packages for it for most distros, so I really
don't see this as a big issue.

I strongly agree!  I know this is a non-issue for most people,
but just to reinforce the point:  zope.interface had one of the first
implementations of interfaces, represents a lot of good work, is
well supported, and is receptive to supporting twisted requirements
... and twisted developers already have more than enough on their
plates without having to maintain yet another component architecture
(beyond the extensions of zope.interface that are currently maintained
by twisted).

All those reasons more than justify the "annoyance", IMO.
