I let my students learn on a VERY simple chat program, UDP only. I think it was less than 50 lines of Python. I cut my teeth on a message handler, POS application posts its requests to MySQL via a Python message handler. Want BIG? spread.org is very powerful and somewhat complicated. A python message server, guaranteed orderly delivery over 1 UDP port, which is a little easier to understand than spread, would be cool. Even BIGGER? Every linux distro has its own set of complex and nearly unreadable networking scripts and none of them handle routing and firewalls well. Be the hero who rights a universal, well documented python networking script. Easy to read config file: ethmodule= IPADDR=192.168.1.12/24 DEFGATEWAY=192.168.1.1 DNSSERV1=208.208.1.1 or even a GUI with help. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
