Well after having looked through the documentation and trying to get to know the API a little lately. I would like to see some things.

1) Provide the use of std::system to launching processes maybe boost::inter process::system(...) to allow spawning a process in a non blocking fashion.

I for one would much prefer child process launching and management to be a separate library, e.g. the library currently under consideration in the Vault. I often have need to run a child process, but have not yet encountered any need for shared memory communication.
