MaxMSP, OpenSoundControl, Zeroconf and Rendezvous

rendezvous_icon

Very much a stream-of-consciousness thing: I've been doing bits of coding of the >>OSC protocol in Java (with reference to the >>flosc package written by Ben Chun), with a view to an OSC networking layer within MXJ. I've been led indirectly to the whole world of >>Zeroconf, where

  • computers can connect to a local network without any information about the network itself (via a wheeze known as link-local addressing);
  • computers can advertise, and search for, services on a network, without knowing what machines are available and what ports are open (via a wheeze known as multicast DNS, with a few wrinkles).
I'm getting a feeling that there's some kind of synergy between the whole OpenSoundControl world and the world of Zeroconf (in effect, Apple's >>Rendezvous). I'm not sure where it goes yet, but I want to find out.
