cogen is a crossplatform library for network oriented, coroutine based programming using the enhanced generators from python 2.5. The project aims to provide a simple straightforward programming model similar to threads but without all the problems and costs.
Features
- wsgi server with coroutine extensions - enabling asynchronous wsgi apps in a regular wsgi stack
- fast network multiplexing with epoll, kqueue, select, poll or io completion ports (on windows)
- epoll/kqueue support via the wrappers in the python 2.6's stdlib or separate modules py-kqueue, py-epoll
- iocp support via ctypes wrappers or pywin32
- sendfile/TransmitFile support (the wsgi server also uses this for wsgi.file_wrapper)
- timeouts for socket calls, signal waits etc
- various mechanisms to work with (signals, joins, a Queue with the same features as the stdlib one) and some other stuff you can find in the docs :)

Download
cogen is available for download at PYPI:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/cogen/or using
easy_install cogen
But the code in trunk is usually the best code.
Development
Latest and Greatest.
Subversion access:
svn co http://cogen.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ cogen
Also, you can use easy_install to install a development snapshot from svn:
