Hi! I'm a Msc. student. Last years, I've been using boost for a lot of tasks, and I liked too much its philosophy. Aside from that, I've worked some time creating some kind of library/code to support the need of plugins in applications. The development went through different approaches over the time... and I think that now I have good ideas to do a good implementation (using .dll/.so and a framework of callback to initialize/destroy plugins and implement the interfaces). At least, I think that it works well in Windows and Linux (so maybe it will work well in most unices) because I tried some prototypes and I think that it could be a great tool for the opensource community (because as far as I know, there isn't a library that does this job). So I'm writing this email because I want to know if there is interest in the community of a project of this type, because I want to participe in Boost/SoC and if it isn't interesting I will try to find some other idea. I know that "new library" projects maybe are bad seen for SoC, but I think that this could be a very concrete project, with short-term useful deliverables. Thanks! ps: apart from that, other idea that i've for SoC is a timer pool library, similar to SDL's but using boost::threads.
