And deferredGenerator in twisted.internet.defer is the robust way for that. It blows up python readability in contrast,but once you got them and made your library I think they are also usable. I do believe, without deferreds in the core ,python will have bad times surviving the net, but that's really an opinion. Have fun, Paolino -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
