Hi,
I working for gsoc creating NNTP access to the mailing list archives for Mailman 3. Therefor I tried Twisted NNTP, during the last days. I noticed, that it is not standard conform in any way. For example: it missing required commands and returns wrong error codes on unknown sub commands.
I will try to fix it. But while I modify it, I could port it to asyncore/async_chat. Would it be preferred? anyncore is bundled with core python and so the new implementation would be runnable without depending on Twisted. But if patching the Twisted implementation, other projects using it could gain profit, too.
So what is your position?
Thanks, Alex
