I looked at POE, but it makes you re-design your whole app around it, and for my needs I'd have to recreate some of basic POE components to suit my app. After few hours of scanning through POE docs I'm begginng to think that it's more of cool-idea then working system.
Rocco would probably disagree, but in my experience POE does try to change your app. It is, however, a very cool infrastructure -- though if you want to design your lightweight message-broker/event-handler, that's not such a bad thing to do -- it keeps you from having to POE-ify your app, and you learn something from reinventing the wheel.

If you were starting something ground up though (and you know the interdependencies will be complex), POE is a good choice. It sort of feels like programming an embedded system or a microcontroller sometime, the programming style is very very different -- your just can't attack the same problems in the same ways.
