> connDelete() is never called in broctl, which is generally not an issue if it is being used via the command line. However, given the Python interface for calling into broctl, if a service is written around broctl and any parallel events are sent (peerstatus, netstats, etc.) then a TCP connection will be maintained given a connDelete() is not called. After a fairly certain interval, resources become an issue and things fail.
