-whats missing?
+- win32 compatibility for the core parts.
 
-- evbuffer, evhttp, bufferevent are missing.
+- the event core library (ev and event layer) compiles and works both as
+  C and C++.
 
-- no priority support at the moment (but likely to be delivered later).
+whats missing?
 
-- kqueue, poll (libev currently implements epoll and select).
+- no event-like priority support at the moment (the ev priorities

-- windows support (whats windows?).
