I want to create an environment where the apps don't care where the
programmes are - and where central server resources can be customised using
local applications. The environment also needs to allow programmes other
than those written in MC to communicate - hence sockets. I kinda know what I
want to do - create (or use) a socket/http router with a DNS type local
database.

Any comments on this idea - anyone done it?
