Such a library could start by skipping the auto IP attribution (consider network devices have an IP address). Then we would only need a broadcast address where a newcomer can arrive and say:
- where is "funky synth" (the newcomer's own name) .. no reply - I am "funky synth" and I talk "foo" protocol on 10.0.0.5:3875 I've had a lot of troubles with porting the zeroconf stack in oscit to linux, embedded linux, os x so I think I would be glad to build a true platform independent solution. Can we form a group to create such a small library on top of 0mq and OpenPGM ? If we build something that works closely with 0mq, we could transparently choose the best transport depending on the host (interprocess for localhost, tcp for remote). Anyone interested in creating/evaluating this mdns library, please join http://github.com/rubyk/zconf. We will probably start by experimenting with a Ruby implementation.
