Forking for each client eliminates the in-memory caching of the data,
which makes calypso performance pretty bad on large data sets. Figuring
out how to use the ThreadingMixIn instead seems like a reasonable plan
though. I have no idea how to make that work with locking etc.

Calypso is now in debian; the 1.1 package has a missing dependency on
the vobject package, and I should upload the obvious fix to make it
actually work.
