Multiple Connections to a Socket Without Threading or Spawning a New Process With Python

Is it possible to write a server that allows multiple connections without using threads or a new process?

Now I am not talking about a bunch of socket.accepts(), but is there a different way?

Python provides the module asyncore. Here is a nice example of an echo server.

If you don't have multiple accepts you don't have multiple connections so it doesn't matter how you process things that aren't there.

It is possible to handle multiple accepted connections in a single thread using a classical select loop.
