Some of the changes from 0.8: Eventlet can now run on top of twisted reactor. Twisted-based hub is enabled automatically if twisted.internet.reactor is imported. It is also possible to "embed" eventlet into a twisted application via eventlet.twistedutil.join_reactor. See the examples for details. http://bitbucket.org/denis/eventlet/src/tip/examples/ A new package, eventlet.twistedutil, is added that makes integration of twisted and eventlet easier. It has block_on function that allows to wait for a Deferred to fire and it wraps twisted's Protocol in a synchronous interface. This is similar to and is inspired by Christopher Armstrong's corotwine library. Thanks to Dan Pascu for reviewing the package. Another new package, eventlet.green, was added to provide some of the standard modules that are fixed not to block other greenlets. This is an alternative to monkey-patching the socket, which is impossible to do if you are running twisted reactor. The package includes socket, httplib, urllib2. Much of the core functionality has been refactored and cleaned up, including the removal of eventlet.greenlib. This means that it is now possible to use plain greenlets without modification in eventlet, and the subclasses of greenlet instead of the old eventlet.greenlib.GreenletContext. Calling eventlet.api.get_hub().switch() now checks to see whether the current greenlet has a "switch_out" method and calls it if so, providing the same functionality that the GreenletContext.swap_out used to. The swap_in behavior can be duplicated by overriding the switch method, and the finalize functionality can be duplicated by having a try: finally: block around the greenlet's main implementation. The eventlet.backdoor module has been ported to this new scheme, although it's signature had to change slightly so existing code that used the backdoor will have to be modified. A number of bugs related to improper scheduling of switch calls has been fixed. The fixed functions and classes include api.trampoline, api.sleep, coros.event, coros.semaphore, coros.queue. Many methods of greenio.GreenSocket were fixed to make its behavior more like that of a regular socket. Thanks to Marcin Bachry for fixing GreenSocket.dup to preserve the timeout. Added proc module which provides an easy way to subscribe to coroutine's results. This makes it easy to wait for a single greenlet or for a set of greenlets to complete. wsgi.py now supports chunked transfer requests (patch by Mike Barton) The following modules were deprecated or removed because they were broken: hubs.nginx, hubs.libev, support.pycurls, support.twisteds, cancel method of coros.event class The following classes are still present but will be removed in the future version: - channel.channel (use coros.Channel) - coros.CoroutinePool (use pool.Pool) saranwrap.py now correctly closes the child process when the referring object is deleted, received some fixes to its detection of child process death, now correctly deals with the in keyword, and it is now possible to use coroutines in a non-blocking fashion in the child process. Time-based expiry added to db_pool.  This adds the ability to expire connections both by idleness and also by total time open.  There is also a connection timeout option. A small bug in httpd's error method was fixed. Python 2.3 is no longer supported. A number of tests was added along with a script to run all of them for all the configurations. The script generates an html page with the results. Thanks to Brian Brunswick for investigation of popen4 badness (eventlet.process) Thanks to Marcus Cavanaugh for pointing out some coros.queue(0) bugs. The twisted integration as well as many other improvements were funded by AG Projects (http://ag-projects.com), thanks!
