We don't currently have plans to implement it ourselves; we're trying to
invoke the magic of open source. So far the feature requests we've gotten
have been all over the map (gevent <http://www.gevent.org/>/asyncio
<https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.4.html#asyncio>/async-await
<https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.5.html#pep-492-coroutines-with-async-and-await-syntax>)
that what's most important right now is just fostering the conversation
among everyone who is interested about what the desired behavior of gRPC
Python will be.

it'd probably be worth taking a look at the Twisted bindings for Thrift (a
