Hi,

you could also take a look to this work by Jarl Lindrud 
(http://www.codeproject.com/KB/threads/Rcf_Ipc_For_Cpp.aspx), which is 
already based on boost (uses boost asio and boost serialization, but also 
provides custom alternatives for both), but it's not in the form of a boost 
library. In the past there has been some discussion about possible 
integration between this library and boost.interface.
As a user, I'd highly appreciate to have one such library in boost (I'm 
currently using the library by Lindrud in several projects).
