Well, according to the docs, gevent-socketio works with Socket.IO 0.7. It's made to work with WSGI frameworks, so I assume could work with web2py. Note, gevent is one of the server options in web2py's anyserver.py file: http://code.google.com/p/web2py/source/browse/anyserver.py#86. I haven't seen any code examples specifically for web2py, so I suppose you'll have to figure it out based on the gevent-socketio docs and examples. If you get it working, report back (maybe post a slice: www.web2pyslices.com). Anthony
