[tor-dev] Query regarding GSOC '16 - txtorcon

Hi Akash,

Thanks for your interest!

Probably the best way to get a feel for what would have to happen to
support txaio (and thus asyncio) would be to take some method that
currently uses @inlineCallbacks and convert it to "just" callbacks +
Deferreds -- as txaio doesn't provide support for @inlineCallbacks /
@coroutine

As for "txtorcon tickets to work on", have a look on GitHub. One good
one might be https://github.com/meejah/txtorcon/issues/132 (if it's
still relevant?) as obviously Python3 support would be interesting for
anyone wanting to use asyncio.

Cheers,
meejah
