You bet ya... A cdevMonitorTable has been included in the distribution that
allows the server developer to create a table of monitors that can be responded
to on a variety of clients... These monitors can have context information
associated with them that limits the amount of data returned on a
client-by-client basis...
All of this code and most of the documentation is available in the
extensions/cdevGenericServer directory of the CDEV distribution....
