Neil said: > Looks pretty scary to apply at this stage. Are the imports from "pb" and "threadable" (and the related methods/calls) the cause of your concern? If so, I'd be happy to gut them. It runs with or without them. I just figured that for someone doing more advanced Twisted stuff, they might be happier if I had left them in, as they are present in the class I modeled. Frankly, I don't know they do (aside from what can be inferred based on the packages and method names), and I wouldn't miss them. If I do gut them, I'll ned a bit of time to re-test to make sure it doesn't have some obscure effect on performance or something. Jason
