Well, it uses tcp socket, as is the straightforward port from current code. And the first thing I wanted to have was mod_mono compiling and working under windows. Using named-pipes is a non-trivial implementation as all the code in mod_mono expects apr_socket to be used. Then in order to uses pipes, a mayor rewrite would be needed. And of course mod-mono-server should implement the same logic. Of course in the long term is the way to go, but by now I'm focused on having a functional tcp version [1]. Which is better than nothing? :). APR provides all the necessary portable funcions, so that part won't be too hard.
