Why not just use epoll directly in your application as and when you need to? epoll is linux-specific so I see no reason why it should be added to poco. What would you have poco do for those platforms that do not support epoll? Make it a no-op? I don't think so. That's the kind of thing ACE does and it is horrible - your code compiles on all platforms but then fails on some platforms at runtime. We don't want to go there.
