I'm happy with it. It feels reasonably clean and there are no special conditions. Although I should refactor the code so that I don't need atomics at all and communicate over channels. But this just happens to be how the code has developed. Thanks for the help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
