Anyone up for trying this on qpsmtpd? :-)

Subject: AnyEvent Implementation of Danga::Socket
Hi folks,
Last week I hacked up Danga::Socket and re-implemented its event
loop in terms of AnyEvent. The resulting (experimental) module is
here:
http://search.cpan.org/~mart/Danga-Socket-AnyEvent-0.01_01/
This allows DJabberd to, in theory, run in any event loop supported
by AnyEvent, and more interestingly allows DJabberd plugins to make
use of AnyEvent protocol implementations.
I'd be interested to hear feedback from DJabberd users about how
well this works, any ways that it sucks compared to the original
Danga::Socket, etc.
You can force DJabberd run in this event loop by running it via:
perl -MDanga::Socket::AnyEvent djabberd
In the long term I think it'd be good to make AnyEvent the default
event loop API for DJabberd, since this will avoid the current sub-
optimal duplication of effort of implementing protocols in both
Danga::Socket and AnyEvent.
