+written in Python that is designed to be easy to use.  It resembles
+Java's Remote Method Invocation (RMI).  It has less similarity to CORBA,
+which is a system and language independent Distributed Object Technology
+and has much more to offer than Pyro or RMI.  Pyro 3.x is no
+longer maintained.  New projects should use Pyro4 instead, which
+is the new Pyro version that is actively developed.")
