Pythomnic 5.0 - platform for building reliable network services in Python

[dmitry at targeted.org]

Pythomnic is a platform for building non-stop middleware around a set
of network services. It allows changing source code and configuration
on the fly without interrupting the live service. Pythomnic modules
can be invisibly migrated from one server to another for redundancy
or load balancing. Such middleware can take as much business logic
as necessary, from being a simple adapter to an integration platform.

New in version 5.0:

* RPC channels are protected with cryptographic HMAC signature.
* Client request timeouts are rigorously enforced and can be queried
from the application code using new pmnc_time_left construct.
* Centralized two-phase lock manager can be deployed and used for
network-wide mutual exclusion with a pmnc_lock construct.
* New shell-like interface allows connecting to a service using telnet
and sending it commands for controlling external equipment, software
or the service itself.
