From the Twisted Philosophy FAQ:
Twisted is a project that is basically an abstract Python networking
library. It contains a low-level (but high-level) networking infrastructure
(twisted.internet), a Remote Object Thingy[TM] (twisted.spread.pb), a web
server (twisted.web), and a multi/single-player interactive fiction engine
(twisted.reality), amongst many other things.
From the (more lucid?) README:
Twisted is an event-based framework for internet applications. It includes
a web server, a telnet server, a multiplayer RPG engine, a generic client
and server for remote object access, and APIs for creating new protocols.
Twisted is based on an unconventional and somewhat Twisted design philosphy:
