You could write your implementation of the network protocol using asyncore (medusa), Twisted, and/or PEAK... all of which are good at asynchronous "stuff" to varying degrees. PEAK has a bunch of new things that make it easy to write asynchronous-acting but synchronous-looking code using generators, these may only be in CVS though. >> Anyway, I'm not a Python developer, just a user.

I agree, but good luck convincing everyone that it's important enough to merge the fork (it's a fork of Python, not a module). BTW, Christian says the 2.3 branch of Stackless is pretty close to ready. -bob
