Been looking into how to do service discovery between client/server

We've got some code in the client to do failover on a server list
but by default it really isn't wired up. It'd be nice to get
something in so even if we don't support full clustered replication,
at the very least we could support a bunch of servers that "work
together" in a stateless fashion.
Looking at adding a new "multicast" server service that just
advertises the URIs of the other networks services available in the
system. We'd probably want it off by default (maybe), but then a
client could just sort of boot without being pointed to a specific
server address and theoretically find a server to talk to.
Would you be using something like SLP to advertise the services?
