LinuxTuples - a Tuple-Space Server for Linux, written in C but with a Python API. I should take a closer look, could be interesting for distributed apps. Although I would prefer a Python-local implementation based on standard process communication tools to work better with multiprocessing in Python. For simple tools or web apps, it would be easier to fork some things directly from there and then communicate via TupleSpaces. But to start an extra server for that, it's not quite right either.
