[Twisted-web] CorePost 0.0.7 - all about content types

[Jacek Furmankiewicz]

could twisted itself be split into two separate packages? e.g. twisted and
twisted-extensions, etc.

I understand the frustration of dealing with pypy/distutils, etc.
but from an end developer's perspective the hurdles one has to go through to
get pypy+twisted working
is a major roadblock when it comes to stealing some of the thunder Node.js
is getting these days.

Cheers,
Jacek
