here's a simple variation of that, which is a bit more efficient, and
perhaps also a bit easier to use in the general case:
while serverlist:
still_active = []
for server in serverlist:
pinger = ping[server]
if pinger.returncode is None:
pinger.poll()
still_active.append(server)
else:
pingresult[server] = pinger.stdout.read()
pingreturncode[server] = pinger.returncode
serverlist = still_active
