What's the situation with ZEO then? The ZEO 'zrpc.client' uses
ThreadedAsync.register_loop_callback(), which is a evil monkeypatch to
asyncore. I haven't seen that change recently, so I assume this has
been ignored?


Yep. Nobody has complained to us about this yet. I personally do not use ZEO, so I could not fix the issue anyways.


I don't expect other people for me to fix this for me, but I suggest that this be noted somewhere where it can be seen, because ZEO is quite important for us running larger sites.

Even though many people do not use ZEO themselves, when considering and comparing web-app frameworks, it is a major pro for Zope to be able to provide cluster capabilities out of the box.

So the capability to use an alternative to ZServer for ZEO sites should, I suggest, be considered as a desirable future feature by ye Zope3 Gods.
