I thought Python's support for language level threads was poor (I rather 
assumed that was one of the drivers for using Twisted in the first place).

It seems a shame to rewrite in C but OTOH with the XCS framework, perhaps it's 
possible to implement things more simply than would be the case with a 
monolithic Xend.  Also, it's worth noting that components could potentially 
be written in multiple languages...

Cheers,
Mark
