Description
I saw this commit and I must admit that it's an honor that Facebook has decided to use uvw.
Furthermore, I think that your idea of bringing it to C++11 may be of interest to many users. I was contacted by several people after switching to C++17, all of them asked to maintain a C++11/14 version, but I don't have enough bandwidth to do it myself right now since uvw is and has always been so far a free time project.
Do you think there is the possibility of a collaboration in this sense, given also your need?
Having Facebook as a partner would surely be an excuse but, more than anything else, knowing that you have someone who can support me with the development would give new life to the project and allow to support a C++11 version without problems.
I'm looking forward to your answer. Thank you in any case.

Research direction
The issue names no Gloo files, tests, or entry points; it only references gloo/transport/uv/libuv.h and requests C++11/14 support. First clarify the intended compatibility scope and whether collaboration is available. Done would require an agreed implementation plan and verified support for the requested C++ versions.
