Of course; I think this is what most of us use libst for: fast internet
applications. Also, it is a safer way to get threading than using libpthread
for internet applications in the end-user domain.

For example, my current project uses it for a p2p network.

I think I've lost what you meant here?
Could you clarify?

Are you saying libst is not right for you because you don't write scalable
internet servers, and find integrating it with glib too hard?

Certainly libst is not right for all projects.

Maybe you're wrong, but maybe you're right, so what did you say? :-)
