Sounds interesting, if it works.  I'm not expert enough to do a deep
analysis.

Well, I did a bit of that.  Realistically speaking though, in this
forum, you need to make some claims in lay terms to make it worthwhile
for people to do the searching.  Like

  "I have an implementatation of an algorithm that makes it easy
  to write ridiculously efficient lock-free datastructures."

or something.  A little more introductory text that explains why we
should care would go a long way.
