+Hi all,
+
+I am working on some tutorials for WebSocket++ and was wondering if anyone here has specific features or concepts that they feel would be particularly useful to have covered? Anything that you wish there was a tutorial for now or wished there had been when you were first setting up your WebSocket++ application?
+
+Best,
+
+Peter

+WebSocket++ is a header only C++ library that implements RFC6455 The WebSocket
+Protocol. It allows integrating WebSocket client and server functionality into
+C++ programs. It uses interchangeable network transport modules including one
+based on C++ iostreams and one based on Boost Asio.
+
+Major Features
+==============
+* Full support for RFC6455
+* Partial support for Hixie 76 / Hybi 00, 07-17 draft specs (server only)
+* Message/event based interface
+* Supports secure WebSockets (TLS), IPv6, and explicit proxies.
+* Flexible dependency management (C++11 Standard Library or Boost)
+* Interchangeable network transport modules (iostream and Boost Asio)
+* Portable/cross platform (Posix/Windows, 32/64bit, Intel/ARM/PPC)
+* Thread-safe
