  1. Additional Filters and Devices

  2. Filter and Device concepts permitting additional optimizations:
-
-   a. sharing of buffers between chain elements, à la [http://www.apachetutor.org/dev/brigades APR bucket brigades]
-   b. scatter/gather operations
+    a. sharing of buffers between chain elements, à la [http://www.apachetutor.org/dev/brigades APR bucket brigades]
+    b. scatter/gather operations
+ 3. New abstractions improving the standard library iostreams:
+    a. Provide more metadata about a stream/stream buffer, e.g.,
+       i. [http://boost.org/libs/iostreams/doc/guide/modes.html mode]
+       ii. blocking/non-blocking
+    b. more fine-grained stream state
+    c. support for asynchronous and non-blocking I/O (see below)
+4. Support for asynchronous and non-blocking I/O
+    a. asio compatibility
+    b. asynchronous and non-blocking device concepts
+    c. abstractions for performing I/O using large collections of asynchronous/non-blocking chains [hopefully this can be implemented using asio]
