Thanks for your interest!

The previous version available at
http://www.xmission.com/~turkanis/iostreams/.
""""""""""
I downloaded the library from the yahoo link you mentioned in the review
request. When trying to use 'filtered_stream' I ran into some
compilation
issues (RedHat 9, g++ 3.3) and before looking into it I wanted to know
the
review status. Knowing that the library is in the review pipeline I will
give it another try.

Some time ago I developed simple iostream adapter 'library' that allows
to
wrap IO device (sockets, pipes, etc) in std::[i,o,io]stream that is very
similar to your sink/source technique. One difference is that the
adapter
is a template class parameterized by the source/sink types. Since your
library offers this functionality (plus much more) I am very pleased it
will become part of boost soon.

A quick look your page is very interesting. (looks very cool)

I was thinking (also) along the same lines for some work I am currently
doing, but you beat me to it.

Question, have you tried to combine the streaming with boost
serialization?
