If you could provide some code example in your documentations (like
dataflow doc does) it would be easier (at least for me) to build an opinion
on the differences between the two libraries.

By the way, it seems that dataflow have been reviewed already and was
rejected (both for lack of reviews and apparently confusion:
http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2008/09/142198.php )
It would be good to analyze this before submitting your library, to avoid
rejection.

This library makes me think a lot about the intel Threading Building Blocks
"Flow" framework that seems to work the same for a specific concept. It
could have been implemented with this kind of library.

Personally I find these library interesting but I 'm not sure there is a
need in my current projects.
