cometd python implementation

Hey Carl,

I'm aware of Athena, but I hadn't given it a deep look. It
might be 
interesting if it spoke Bayeux. Might make other kinds of
pages able to 
use it (not just Nevow applications).

Regards

Hi,

I'm an ex-Nevow contributor (just a plain old user right
now) and I
think Athena probably could use the Bayeaux layer.

Basically, if Bayeaux can guarantee message delivery, can
route
messages to the correct destination and can be used to
identify active
pages then I think Athena could use it.

I haven't had much chance to look at Bayeaux yet and I'm
not sure how
much Athena's implementation has changed sinee I last used
it
properly, but I imagine it whould be possible for Athena to
register
as a "master" Bayeaux channel handler and
dynamically create and
destroy child channels that correspond with the current set
of live
pages.

Hmm, is a channel hierarchy controller usecase covered by
the Bayeaux
spec? i.e. a "controller" that registers with a
fixed channel name but
can dynamically manage child channels without registering
1000s more
times?

That would probably be a very useful feature if it's not
already
possible. Sounds similar to the recent globbing discussion,
I guess.
