Tomasz,
I'm having trouble visualizing how the systemd triggering works. When a
program like owread tries to contact owserver, is owserver started? Is this
done by monitoring the typical owserver port (4304)? How about other
owserver friends?
If you don't mind describing the process more, or giving pointers to
documentation, perhaps we can assist in the implementation.
I looked at the code you referenced (iodine), but it doesn't have any
explanations. Is iodine an example client or the controlling code?
