Suggestion1: a little syntactic sugar that provides the ability to reset() an un-expired deadline_timer "atomically" without going through the cancel()/expires_from_now() sequence.
I'll have a think about how this might work. Maybe it's as simple as having the expires_at()/expires_from_now() setters always cancel associated timers (although that may have a performance cost), and have them return the number cancelled (as cancel() does).
Suggestion2: SCTP support? It's about to appear in both Windows and Linux and VoIP and/or streaming multimedia will probably make it fairly important in the next couple of years.
I only know a little about SCTP, so contributions are welcome :) I'm guessing it would take the form of an sctp class (similar to asio::ipv4::tcp), sctp::endpoint, and a new seqpacket_socket class. Cheers, Chris
