After that, it could very well still suck, but it will suck in a consistent, deliberate way. I'll add an interface parameter to it for 0.1204. It looks like SocketFactory's getsockname method, which just maps to perl's getsockname built-in function being called on the factory's socket handle, is returning a bogus value. I'm not sure why that would be, unless the socket factory couldn't create the socket. If that's true, the failure is probably being caused by an old socket at the bind address.
Aliases basically turn sessions into little daemons.
No offense taken. POE is all familiar to me, and documentation is way harder to write than code. I've been doing this for years now, and it's hard to look at documentation from the POV of someone who isn't as familiar with the code as I am. I've revised that section, and it's included at the end of this file. Please let me know if it reads better.
