I don't know exactly what you mean by non-trivial sever and what you get from ACE/expect not to get from Boost.Socket that a non-trivial server requires? Depends on the server, CDR formatting, thread-safe queues come to mind. There are probably a few threading things as well. Of course all

Just another lurker view: maybe boost can lead by following not too far out in front. The linux people seem to be well on their way to providing SCTP support at the kernel level. The home page for the project is at http://lksctp.sourceforge.net/. Searching MSFT online and privatenews yielded

Jeff, Thanks. As regards times, we should definitely be using the time_duration from boost date_time! Yes, but we'll need to do something with the core. If you just used posix_time::time_duration out of the box it is a bit of a heavy dependency for the need. Would you have any code
