   Because of the troubles with "built-in" events, I switched to using   
   java-style events: The server defines an interface that standardizes the   
   sending and/or receiving of the messages. The clients then have objects   
   that implement that interface, which are handed to the server. The   
   server now communicates through those objects.   
      
   Best regards
