I haven't had time to do a serious review of Asio yet, so this question may be totally dumb: will it be submitted *monolitically*? It seems to me there are some parts, such as the ipv4, ipv6 classes which could well live on their own and be used separately from the rest. I guess many of the thread related parts could be insulated as well, though again I haven't checked throughly.
You really need to address this question to Chris. It is up to him how he wants to structure his proposal to the committee.
It is my plan to submit it as a single proposal. In the nearish future I hope to publish a very rough draft that will give some idea of what I think should be included.
But the usual practice is to put all interdependent components into the same proposal, even if the components are logically separated. Otherwise in a committee environment, you run the risk of the infrastructure items getting approved but the stuff actually useful to end-uses not getting approved, or visa versa.
Yeah, I wouldn't want to end up like this guy: http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/this_britain/article1018524.ece ;) Cheers, Chris
