Better integration between Twisted and Django has been on my todo list for
quite a while. The current integration is done via WSGI and multithreading
each whole request, which is not exactly the way one would like to use
Twisted. ;-) Integration between Twisted and Zope is also currently done by
multithreading each whole request, AFAIK.
Unfortunately Django code may block anywhere, so there's a lot of work
trying to segment it in blocking and non-blocking parts, and hiding the
blocking ones behind deferToThread calls.

The [European] Parliamentary Assembly therefore urges the member states,
and especially their education authorities: [...] to firmly oppose the
teaching of creationism as a scientific discipline on an equal footing
with the theory of evolution and in general resist presentation of
creationist ideas in any discipline other than religion.
