Hi,

I am working on implementing the RSL. Part of this is changing the modex

system to to include a non-blocking interface.


However, I have looked again and noticed that nobody is using the 
non-blocking modex receive. Because of this I am inclined to not have 
such an interface in the RSL.


hmm, would using a non-blocking modex recv improve performance in any 
way, or have any other useful impacts?  If so, I would use it.

Please let me know if there are any objections to this, and if anyone is 
currently planning on using such functionality.


Thanks,
