I think this link http://telegraphy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/intro.html is far more informative than op's. I had no idea what telegraphy was after reading the posted link.

Yeah the architecture diagram helps out a lot. The XML-RPC link from the app to the gateway seems a bit old-fashioned. Is that common in Django?

Not at all - I don't think I've ever seen XML-RPC used in a Django project or library. It's more common in the Twisted world though, and this project's default implementation uses Twisted.
