Please do!  Does either of the implementations offer an interface to
the sockets at a lower level than iostreams though?

I personally prefer to use lower-level read/write semantics with
sockets and handle would-block conditions etc in my own code. 
Alternatively I would be happy with a mechanism whereby I could pass a
block of bytes to be written-from (or read-to) and a callback that
will be notified when the operation is complete.  Perhaps this is one
of the functions of the "manager" class you mention.
