Is there any interest in a new approach to network messaging?

I recently released a new way to do network messaging. Its aimed at anyone wanting to do;

  • multi-processing on a host, e.g. a pool of job processes
  • messaging within a LAN, e.g. site automation
  • messaging across the Internet, e.g. remote weather stations

It is designed to take the major headaches out of network messaging (e.g. marshaling, encoding, async sockets, network I/O, network address management), leaving applications as clear as possible. I’m hoping that there is somebody here that is interested enough in networking generally to have a look. All feedback appreciated.

Looks interesting. I see it’s MIT, is the source available anywhere?

Short answer - maybe. If you could say a bit more it might help, about where your interest is coming from.

I have been attempting to promote this different style of networking for about 6 months and have mostly encountered resistance. There will always be resistance to the next thing but this is more specific; guessing there is a strong aversion to async programming at the core of it. Currently reevaluating where I want to go with it.
