Hi, Just to note one of the arguments i've seen here is that low level networking and io control is extremely complex and so only very few people can meaningfully contribute. This is an enormous red flag for anyone looking at using Boost ASIO from a supply chain analysis perspective. It's not a massively big practice at the moment but is growing. Fundamentally being in a situation where only one person has the knowledge required to safely make changes to a open source package is not a good place to be. Best wishes George
