As I might have mumbled about before, I think it's wasted effort to
bother removing dependency on Twisted. You can still do a CGI interface
without getting rid of the Twisted dependency altogether, and if people
can install Nevow in their CGI environments, they can also install Twisted.

DP and I talked about this on IRC. Basically, we need::
* Move regadapt into Twisted (twisted.python)
* Modify the Quotient release process such that it includes CVS HEAD of
Nevow for every Quotient release.
* Put Nevow into its own CVS module
As soon as these can happen, Nevow can have a standalone release.
