It's called PySFTPd, and it can be found here:

     http://www.dlitz.net/software/pysftpd/

Some caveats:

     - It's alpha-quality; It might have bugs.

     - It's sparsely documented.

     - It currently only supports read-only operation (though you can extend 
       it fairly easily to support read-write operations)

     - The --chroot option probably won't work unless you apply my last 
       patch against paramiko.  Note that you don't need --chroot to 
       restrict individual users to particular directories.
     
     - It's licensed under GPL >= 3

Comments/suggestions/vulnerability reports/patches are welcome.
