Hi,

Is there any interest in my implementing support for a specific threading
model? The library would expose an event manager (driven by an external
thread or self-sufficient) with which modules register a callback to be
called from any number of registered single-shot or periodic interval
entries. A natural extension of the model is to include support for
socket triggers. Another would be to provide a pool of such event
managers. This code would leverage existing boost libraries such as
thread, possibly function, etc. One example of use is with server
frameworks wherein processing of several client connections
can be handled by a single event manager.

Thanks,
Ken
