When node.js was created, why was it essential to create a new library to 
run background (asynchronous) jobs? What was to example wrong with 
boost.asio or libevent? If some functionality was needed should it well be 
more easy to extend those libraries than to create a new library, from 
scratch?

What was the primary reason for creating libev/libuv?

Thanks in advance!
