web2 sounds like it will be fabulous. I hope you don't mind me asking for a bit more advice-- suppose I do need to fix the streaming file upload problem* right away (or at least fairly soon). Do I use nevow instead of web? Do I use web2 from svn? What other options do I have before me? Which of these paths will allow me to bring my webserver back to web2 with the least resistence when web2 is released? -- thanks, Lenny G * btw, isn't this a security hole for any webserver running off of twisted-web.resource.Resource -based websites -- if a client does a post with multipart/form-data and then just streams data endlessly, the server process mushrooms to fill all available memory and swap? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I hope there is a limit to it. OTOH this is a memleak only, nevow carryover has memleak possibilities too. So while in the long run it would need to be fixed (as well as nevow carryover, with a simple timestamp to collect the obsolete entries), this would be a minor security issue after all.
