Recently, I am considering of merging two parallel events into one.
The problem is following.
There are two parallel events inputed into process P.
P simplily pass the events it gets to channel t.
You can use ALT structure to do this. But the problem is when channel t and s
receive the events simultaneouly, P definely will lose one of them. I think of 
using shared variable at low level. But it will destroy the elegence of OCCAM.
Is there any way to do this in OCCAM?  As this is very comman, OCCAM should 
consider this.  In my problem, one of r,s is a hardlink.
                           _________
                   r ----> |       |
                           |   P   |----> t
                   s ----> |       |
                           ---------

Any ideas and suggestions are welcomed. Thanks in advance.
