[Twisted-Python] Multiple main loops

[David Pratt]

Hi Phil. I am pleased about the zope and twisted integrated in zope3. I 
believe there can be a tighter integration and additional benefits. Zope 
currently uses a twisted loop to run the application and an asyncore 
loop for zeo communication. These are both initialized at start up. What 
I would like to see, is ansyncore replaced with a second twisted loop. I 
would also like the zeo server to be a twisted app that runs zrpc. 
Twisted's ssh and ssl support would be used to secure client / server 
communication.

Regards,
David
