Talk:Twisted (software)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There can be a lot more work done on the article: the proceedings for the 9th and 10th International Python Conference contain conference proceedings (usually considered equivalent to peer-reviewed journals, since they are peer-reviewed), which can be used to cite-sources regarding much of the information here and bring it to full encyclopedic level.

[edit] What is Twisted?

I don't get a sense of what Twisted is from reading the intro, other than that it's a computer thingy (is it software? An API? A programming guideline?) that allows one to develop projects that makes use of quite a few Internet protocols. --ErikStewart 22:21, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

To my programmer's ears, "an event-driven networking framework written in Python" sounds pretty clear and accurate. What about it do you think needs more coverage? --Piet Delport 01:19, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I also think it reads fine, though I can see how the use of terminology would make it rather undescriptive to laypeople. I turned the technical terms into links. I think some part of the WP style guide discourages such dense linking, but that part is stupid so it doesn't count. Somegeek 18:35, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Page name

The page is really about Twisted, the software project. The first clause of the first sentence talks about Twisted Matrix Labs. The rest of the article is about Twisted itself. The page should be named "Twisted", not "Twisted Matrix Laboratories". Perhaps the first sentence should be shuffled down somewhere, since it has nothing to do with the rest of the article.

True. I've renamed it to Twisted (software). --Piet Delport 14:17, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
