-0. I personally believe that this shouldn't be backported. If you want this, you should use 2.0. Others will disagree vehemently though, and you may indeed garner enough +1s to get it in. IMHO, 1.3 should be in bug-fix mode only. No new features - as witnessed by our addition of AcceptMutex which screwed up 1.3.23 on Solaris. If you need this functionality, why not use 2.0 and help us get 2.0 to be GA? My $.02 - feel free to ignore me. -- justin
