Why are we talking about Go, Rust, and D on a thread about a new C++ library? I mean, I know the answer, but I wish we weren't.

I ordinarily wouldn't care, but I usually feel like I have something to learn from ambitious networking libraries even when they're written in languages I prefer not to use.

For what it's worth, I try to not bring up Rust in threads about other languages; it just happens that most threads about Rust appear in threads about other languages.

I would rather talk about the implementation of async I/O too.

I just wanted to point out the barriers a developer faces when trying to use C++. Sorry, I can't resist compare it to what I know, which happens to be other programming languages different to C++.
