I'll take a look at them myself, too, for the SOC branch.

I'd love to get some sample for this behaviour, as server-client
connection, both TCP and UDP, with or without proxies, are working on my
side, both base and event-driven, at least TCP and UDP are working
perfectly, and I didn't really touch IPC much. I'll check IPC anyway and
unix sockets. But if you can actually tell me what's wrong instead of
"problems in the send/receive protocol handling or something" it will be
extremely helpful. A simple code sample showing that error would be the
best.

The 10 minutes timeout issue has been discussed here more than once, or
in bugtracker at least, and never got to a definite answer, other than
everyone saying "oh god that's too much". Changing it is something in my
TODO for sure.

I'll check the patch as I said above, about the reentrant threading
problems. That's a very sensitive issue, and every time I seen issues in
that matter were caused by user code more than the actual library, but
it'll be nice to discover there's something fishy actually going on
there.

And for everyone else: I'm fully moved to the new flat, have internet,
and rested a little from all the work needed to actually move
everything. So I'll get back to the branch and commit my latest work on
base/gui implementations, to move on diferent build systems than I used
(VS comes to mind), and get feedback from users to see issues I don't
see myself on my side (like the one discussed above).

In short, I'm back.
