Hey,

Im doing some -audit work and Im about to start writing some patches to
change alot of the select(2) calls to use k{queue,event}().  Niels Provos
has started writing (or has semi-finished a release, afaik) of his
libevent code.  Basically it's a general interface to multiple types of
event handling code (select(), poll(), kqueue/event) on file descriptors.
I am interested in using something like this, possibly, instead of hacking
through some of the code and moving kqueue/event into them.

I am wondering if anyone has spoken to Niels about perhaps getting it into
our tree?  or if anyone has any thoughts on this at all? :-)

The url for the code is:

http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent/

Thanks,

Andrew
