Hi Ben,

Please be aware of "top posting" - it is good manners to reply under a message, so the context of the reply is maintained.

In response to your comments above, I will politely disagree. While a library or framework to do async messaging etc might be useful to some JACK users, it will certainly not benefit everybody. As such, it should be a separate project, and not demand that existing JACK users also have to deal with this extra complexity/functionality.

Some googling will likely lead you to multiple frameworks or libraries that provide lock-free programming constructs like queues, FIFOs, locks etc. There's even a few old threads on this mailing-list[1] about it :)

Regards, -Harry
