[Twisted-Python] Announcing Crochet 0.7: Easily use Twisted from threaded applications

[Itamar Turner-Trauring]

Crochet is an MIT-licensed library that makes it easier for threaded
applications like Flask or Django to use the Twisted networking framework.
Features include:

   - Runs Twisted's reactor in a thread it manages.
   - Hooks up Twisted's log system to the Python standard library
loggingframework. Unlike Twisted's built-in
   logging bridge, this includes support for blocking Handler instances.
   - Provides a blocking API to eventual results (i.e. Deferred instances).

This release includes better documentation and API improvements, as well as
better error reporting.

Here is a simple example of using Crochet:

import sys
from twisted.web.client import getPagefrom crochet import setup,
run_in_reactorcrochet.setup()
@run_in_reactordef download_page(url):
    return getPage(url)
result = download_page(sys.argv[1])# wait() returns the result when it
becomes available:print result.wait()
