Crazy Al's Christmas Forest

I caught up on some reading and took a look at the Twisted book O'Reilly just released. Very interesting read and a refreshing approach. If you are interested in python - this may be a good read for you. Twisted is an MIT project and is an event driven networking framework written in python.

I have updated the python wiki with a page on someTwisted examples and included a page on simple http proxy server .

Here are a few pictures from our saturday afternoon hijinks while Tree Shopping.
