i wonder if i am actually on the perl-loop list itself. does it get any
trafic other than the threads i start? i never see any. that would
explain why i didn't see (or i am blind) the announcement.

that would be good as it would let me know if the new features are
something i want to use.

  JNP> Oh OK.  Good luck.

i rewrote to use the timeout_cb stuff. with no docs it was tricky
looking at the code to figure out the api. i wasn't sure you supported
the [$obj, method] api but you did and i am using it. both read and
write objects with timeouts work nicely with better code.
i also have an accept object working and now i need to the the async
connect one. 

graham,

do i have to use the perl socket stuff or can i get a partially
connected socket with IO::Socket? or another idea, can i just get a
plain IO::Socket and set NON_BLOCK and then call the conect method with
the remote address? that would be great if that worked so i wouldn't
have to handle all the possible addresses and let IO::Socket do the work
for me.

thanx,
