whoops! thanks

time.sleep() in that loop grants that the condition is retried for at least 1 
second before failing the test. By removing time.sleep() a test which is 
supposed to fail will fail almost immediately.

Good advice, done.

whoops =)

I don't think it would worth it. create_socket() is just a thin wrapper around 
socket.socket(). Actually I wasn't even sure to add that test or not.

Unfortunately asyncore does not support UDP.
At a first look it would seems so, since create_socket() accepts two 
parameters, family and *type*:

    def create_socket(self, family, type):
        sock = socket.socket(family, type)

...but actually we can only use SOCK_STREAM, as the API just takes care of 
wrapping send() and recv() calls, not recvfrom() and sendto().
