For the case of using a single mote with TOSBase which forwards messages
it is clear. But, say we got two motes connected per USB to the computer.
We would need two instances of SerialForwarder, each associated to one of
the motes, and if a program on the computer wants to communicate with one
of the motes, it would have to know which SerialFowarder to connect to.

How would I have to do that?

And going a bit further. The ideal case would be to have a program which
automatically checks USB ports, gets the mote address of each mote
connected and creates a SerialForwarder association with each mote, so
that if a program wants to send a message to a mote, it only needs to know
its local address. I am sure something similar already exists. I would
like to know is it done.

Thanks,

- J.
