I'm actively working on SASL networking for sfront at the moment -- SASL is the more general-purpose control language for Structured Audio, provided as a companion to MIDI control. SASL is well suited for writing custom audio codecs in Structured Audio, so once the SASL packetization is ready, sfront should be a viable platform for these sorts of experiments. But not for another few months ... --jl
