+/**
+ * @class TAO_LF_Event
+ *
+ * @brief Use the Leader/Follower loop to wait for one specific event.
+ *
+ * The Leader/Follower event loop is used to wait for incoming
+ * responses, as well as to wait for all the data to be flushed.
+ * This class encapsulates this event loop. It uses Template Method to
+ * parametrize the 'waited for' predicate (i.e. reply received or
+ * message sent or connection establishment etc.)
+ *
+ * @todo Implementing the Leader/Followers loop in this class, as
+ * well as the callbacks to communicate that an event has completed
+ * leads to excessive coupling. A better design would use a separate
+ * class to signal the events, that would allow us to remove the
+ * Leader/Followers logic from the ORB. However, that requires other
+ * major changes and it somewhat complicates the design.
