Sorry if I was not specific. My main point was that we'll need to specify a set of rules for the layer 1 API. Some of the rules will have to be concerned with how the layer 1 is expected (in terms of threads) to callback layer 2 functions. I think that there are 2 options (see above) on how it can be specified. Eugene __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
