Networking Library?



What is the best Eiffel library for network communication? Here's what
I've found so far:

yaesockets: My preference. Only compiles on SE but can compile to ISE
with minimal changes. Can run on all platforms that the cl library
runs on (UNIX, Win, others?) Also there are little things that bother
me, ie spelling errors, lot's of comments like `experimental!', `The
following is probably wrong', and `still to be entered', non-standard
style, missing socket options, and other nit picks.

eSockets: Didn't seem worth trying because it looks out of date

ISE Sockets: Runs on all platforms that ISE Eiffel runs on, works
great, well tested and supported. The only problem is, of course, the
cost. ISE Sockets may only be used with EiffelStudio (AFAIK).

Are there other libraries that I'm missing?
