Yes, please do!
The last message I posted on this thread contains even some
important info for apr_socket_t (which gets near the NAL,
but not as far). I even pointed out some problems in
apr_socket_t.
I haven't gotten a response to this posting till now (I'm
not on the list!)

We (the Samba TNG people) asked for NAL, because we
currently don't need performance but _extremely clean_
design and abstraction.

Cool... so someone sees a use outside our goals! :)
