By this I take it you mean you want to export a standard web services API, right (RPC over HTTP)? Or are you insisting on writing your own protocol? If it's the first, I recommend something like web2py. http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/10. Or Django. Sounds heavy but it's really not that bad especially if you don't need a real web UI, but are just exposing an RPC api. If it's the second, then, well, yes Twisted will work great, provided you can understand how it works. It's actually not that complicated, but python's dynamic nature can sometimes hide how things work from you at first and what exactly is getting passed around from function to function. Took me about a month to really grok Twisted. Now that my project is done (quite successful actually... a full-blow LDAP proxy server), I have forgotten much about how Twisted works. In another vein, there's node.js as well. Apparently it's being used a lot to implement quick and dirty services like what you need. > I prefer opinion from those who have programmed real projects in it - > not just read some blog or Slashdot :P Ha. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
