     I think of on steriods as being even stronger :-).
     
     I'm still working on a submission and should be able to post the 
     beginings of a lib in January.

Hopefully not!  I think of on steroids as "bigger" and certainly we don't want 
to be bigger than ACE.  Don't get me wrong, ACE is an industrial grade solution 
ported to every platform imaginable -- some that barely support C++.  Of course 
it was also written b/f C++ was standardized.  Hopefully boost sockets should be
a bit lighter :-)
