Swocket is a cross-platform modular XML Socket server framework implemented in Python with the intention of being used to communicate with Macromedia Flash 5 content but is easily usable with other platforms that support the same flavor of XML Sockets.

I'm planning to totally refactor swocket given that Python has gone through a point version and flash has gone through a major revision since last I played with it. I'm considering using the Twisted framework as a "host" for swocket, make it an option, or at least steal some of their good ideas, of which there are many. I do however plan to make it easier to use than Twisted's current state, as most Flash developers are definitely not experienced python veterans.
Sorry about the inactivity on the project, I know I haven't updated the binaries or the CVS in months. I have been pretty busy lately with other projects, the kind that pay my bills, and have neglected my duty to write and release open sourced code. I do have a slightly newer version than the CVS on my server, with an avatar demo. You can check it out at http://undefined.org/digiTotal/test3/ .. It works okay so far, but I'm not sure I can release it as-is, since the avatar graphics weren't done by me. Perhaps I'll release that as SWF-only w/o the FLA depending on his response. In any case, more changes are to come, and I plan on being more active with the project now that I have more time to work with.
