The writeup on the C details seemed to assume knowledge of Twisted in 
addition to the current C API.  There also seemed to be references near 
the top to new things not yet defined.  I gave up about in the third 
paragraph.  So I agree that rearrangement would help some readers.

Fortunately for my curiosity, I skipped down about halfway where things 
became clearer again.
