Based on a quick look, it seems like Cyclone provides a slightly nicer way to specify how to handle the various requests than does a plain Twisted web application. Are there any other advantages to using Cyclone as opposed to plain Twisted?
From what I understand of the two systems, Twisted's "web stuff" isn't
really intended as a "web application framework" (yet?) and you'd probably want Nevow or Twisted.web2 for that anyway. Cyclone and Tornado, OTOH, *are* Web frameworks. The advantage of Cyclone being that it's based on the core Twisted async "stuff" rather than Tornado's homebrew (and hence supports more things, has tests, cross-platform support, etcetera).
Using Cyclone would also allow you to use txtorcon, as it's based on Twisted too :)
