  Description     : HTTP library inspired by requests but written on top of
Twisted

It provides a simple, higher level API for making HTTP requests when using
Twisted.

>>> from treq import get

>>> def done(response):
...     print response.code
...     reactor.stop()

>>> get("http://www.github.com";).addCallback(done)

>>> from twisted.internet import reactor
>>> reactor.run()

Besides this being a useful library i need it as a dependency for crossbar.
I intend to package this under the umbrella of the python modules team.
