Could you elaborate?
Will it be a stand-alone alternative to Event and POE?

Tnx,

   one goal for stem is to get more event loops supported. .11 (out SOON i
   hope) has a new event loop design that makes it easy to wrap event loops
   from various packages like tk, qt, wxwindows, etc. if someone who is
   doing gui work wants to have a network toolkit available to them behind
   the gui, then all you need is to write a simple wrapper module (i have 2
   already and they can be used as guides/templates). if anyone is
   interested, i will be glad to provide any help. i just don't know the
   various event loops and don't have the spare time to investigate them.

   and wrapping an event loop only requires about 4 short subs to be
   written: handle readable, handle writable, timeout and main loop. this
   is a nice project for anyone who wants to learn some stem and also
   extend a gui that they like.
