Heh, but part of your argument for using POE or Twisted was that "they
also both have a very large number of excellent quality libraries to
do innumerable other things." I think it's more like a slippery slope
of mixing programming paradigms than it is a blatant error. Also, I
think it was specifically the Django ORM code that bit them hardest,
not HTTP calls. Yes there are ORM options like adbmapper, but I think
you increasingly find yourself in the weeds on the fringe of the
Python community.
