[rtmpy-dev] RTMP Connection Request Response

[Thijs Triemstra | Collab]

Hi Anthony,

we're currently very busy with the amf part of rtmpy, a project  
called PyAMF [1], and we haven't had the time/priority to solve the  
Connect RTMP packet stuff for RTMPy, which we will start after PyAMF  
is stable enough.

hth,

Thijs
