I don't think so.
    

Keep smoking whatever it is that you're smoking.  It's better than my
stuff.  I bet you have unicorns for pets, too.
  

I am really sorry if you feel insulted; if so -- I didn't mean it; English is not my native language, maybe I did a mistake somewhere. I am using Twisted and Divmod software for some time. Being able to compare those with some other opensource projects out there, I definetley choose them over another -- also because of configurability (mentioned twistd(1) program is a wonderful example of pluggable architecture) and backward-compatibility. If you need any more help on twisted.web and nevow, feel free to post your questions here.

I just don't think that dissing efforts of many developers to write backwards-compatible software by calling those efforts "a giant mess" is a sensible thing. Twisted is opensource. You can file bugs and send patches at http://twistedmatrix.com/
