Python Symmetric JSON-RPC

"A more beautiful JSON-RPC implemenation in python."

A JSON-RPC (see http://json-rpc.org) implementation for Python, with the following features:

• Symmetric - both the connecting and the listening process can send and receive method calls, there is no specific "server" or "client" process, and no difference between the two connection ends apart from who initiates the connection.

• Asynchronous - calls can be interlieved with new calls initiated before a previous call has returned.

• Thread-safe - calls to the remote side can be done from multiple threads without any locking.

• Transport agnostic - can run on top of anything that resembles a socket the slightest (e.g. OpenSSL)

What this really drills down to is that this library implements the full specification of JSON-RPC over sockets, something no other implementation of JSON-RPC for Python does.
