Hello,

I'm interested in learning about how System V Streams are being
used.  I've seen its use in a layered stack archetecture (ala OSI),
and glimpses of its use as by tty line discipline/driver.  I've also had
the pleasure of designing and implementing two modules for data communications.

If anyone knows of or has seen periodical articles or books aimed at
describing the various uses of Streams, or at a particular application
design, or of the problems Streams made or solved for a given implementation
could you please forward the reference to me?

Actually, if there is ANY documentation that describes Streams in more
depth than in the primer, I'm interested.

By the way, to those implementing or designing Stream's modules:
Are you using or defining a set of Streams programming/design conventions?
Is there a movement to lay down Streams conventions and make them public?

Thank-you
