Nikos,

waiting for your answer, very quick BTW, I've modified the logic 
in my program to create the child processes after all messages have 
been exchanged by parents. It works nicely.

Anyway, I think about your idea above.

Serialize the session data would be nice, but the hard task would
be to synchronize it between processes : that would go against the
very advantage of creating a child process (to not bother about
synchronization).

Is it possible to improve the documentation to help people 
not to fall into this pitfall in the future ?

Thank you very much !
Michel
