Never mind - I didn't understand the concept of deferreds ;-). When I read the code for FileSender, I thought it might be cool to have something similar for the NetstringReceiver. But in the case of FileSender, the delivery of a file is explicitly triggered by the client. My vague idea was to create a method beginNetstringReception that returns a Deferred. But since Deferred instances are not reusable, I'd have to call this method each time I wanted to receive a netstring, and this is obviously nonsense.
