Charles, In the past I have used the POST list concept very well and I believe is still being used today. You need a number of functions to make things easier.
1) An add function to add a pointer to an ECB to be posted to the list 2) A delete function to remove one. 3) The post routine. If this is a constant list, then you might want to think about a way to 'round robin' the ECB that gets posted first. First posted is often first dispatched and depending on what you are doing you may want a more even distribution of work among the waiting tasks.
