ah, sure, that no Python 3 is a show stopper, but I hope event twisted
will adopt Python 3 eventually ...

I'm not proposing importing yet another dependency into Bundy, just that
Twisted-Names could be an optional module. As it is Python, it should
not be too hard to have it as a test case on how simple (or not simple)
it is to create additional server modules for Bundy.

I also don't propose that anyone abandons work on the Bundy core in
favor of Twisted, instead Twisted integration might be an interesting
project for a newcomer to the team.

This idea should be filed under "crazy" "idea" "future" "if time permits" :)
