I've posted a few things (unfortunately, DejaNews is doing poorly as an
archival service these days), but there's nothing up on a web site yet.
After I do my presentation at OSCON, I'm planning on whipping up
something for the web.  If you've used threads in another language, it's
pretty easy to use Python threads; even if you've never used threads,
it's still easy, but you need to know a few tricks.

In any event, take a look at the threading module (*NOT* thread) and see
if that's enough to get you started.
