I'd be very interested to see this as well, and to contribute when
possible. I'm currently working on a project with multiple processes
communicating lots & lots of data over a network via DDS.

Doug, you mentioned having seen Qt wrappers for DDS in past. Are these
internal to where you work, or could they be found online?
