This is great! I would like to see some tutorials/documents on how
to implement other IO types within the ASIO framework. For example,
we communicate with CAN-based devices and it would be extremely useful
(I think) to do this with ASIO.

Is ASIO limited to IO only? For example, I can think of an asynchronous
"event" that listens to changes in the filesystem. It seems this could
be implemented in much the same way as IO types within ASIO.

What do you think?
