Michel Andre asked a similar question about template based or 
inheritance/interface based approach (see 
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.devel/121983 and scroll down) 
and got only one answer (that was mine). I don't see much of a consensus but 
lots of ideas. There is no general consensus so far about the package 
structure of the whole network library. So there can't be any consensus 
about how different packages look inside. So let us do this step first 
before we do the second please.
