I really wish you would stop telling everybody about your hosted custom C++ IDL solution for each person who comes by to ask a C/C++ networking question.
In fact, I would like for you to not offer it as a solution at all until there are at least two other legitimate gamedev.net users, separate from yourself, with actual shipped projects, who can describe how they have successfully used it in a project of their own.
I have described several times what I think is wrong with your solution. If you want to discuss how to make it better, or ask for implementation advice, that is totally legit, but as of now, I'm reserving the right to delete any post from you suggesting the C++ middleware writer if you don't also contribute *significant* additional value that is not in any way tied to your particular solution.
It is my opinion as moderator that this will increase the quality of advice for questions being asked in this forum, and this decision is not up for debate.
