[Twisted-Python] Looping

In twisted a polling loop usually translates into either a system of
reactor.callLaters or a twisted.internet.task.LoopingCall.
Either like this this:
def __init__(self,oaf,interval=600):
self.interval=interval
reactor.callLater(5,self.checkSystem)
def checkSystem(self):
reactor.callLater(self.interval,self.checkSystem)
or like this:
def __init__(self,oaf,interval=600):
self.interval=interval
task.LoopingCall(self.checkSystem).start(self.interval)
When I wrote what may be a similar system I actually set it up to refresh
only when a client requested the output and the local copy was out of date,
so you may actually prefer that approach.

How could you possibly think typing 'import skynet' was a good idea?
