I think only Michael Kerrin actively supports Twisted. I'm not sure
what the status of that is. The last time I made time to pay attention to
this, at the time we released Zope 3.2, the Twisted WSGI integration
had a lot of problems. I tried to address the most urgent ones, but
ended up with a server that was much slower than ZServer, which was
much slower than the Zope 2 server. I was also alarmed that we were
maintaining our own Twisted WSGI integration. I don't know if the Twisted
community has gotten behind WSGI. If not, I'm not sure we gained anything
from using Twisted.
I'm having second thoughts about the Twisted integration for a number
of reasons:
* Twisted people actively dislike eggs. They won't eggify Twisted any
time soon.
*gaah*
* Twisted async approach doesn't really match Zope's threaded approach.
I'm not sure how the twisted integration works at all. But combining
both worlds in a way seems good. Twisted's callLater would be very
handy for instance. The zc.async package allows some support for
asynchronous calls. All that would be gone w/o using twisted.
and your reason:
* Who is maintaining Twisted's WSGI integration? If that's us, then that sucks.
That's true. Especially because the Zope people think differntly than
Twisted people ;)
