Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment: [Guido] >> Looking back, I think Zope and Medusa should have adopted and evolved >> their own copy of asynchat a long time ago...
[Jim] > This statement is puzzling. No big deal, but I'm curious why you say > this. ISTR that Zope has or had significant monkeypatches to at least one of asyncore/asynchat. The resulting coupling between Zope and asyn* has meant that the de-facto API of asyn* was much more than the documented API. IMO that's a sign of a poorly designed API (in asyn*). If Zope had had its own copy of asyn* (under a different name of course) that relied only on lower-level APIs (sockets and select), it could have evolved that copy directly without the need for monkeypatching. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1641> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
