Ponderings.

Been thinking today about yet another idea i had..

Basic Idea is this: Have a daemon similar to an IRCd, which allows other servers to link to it, but does not broadcast the servers to any of its links, unless explicitly configured to.

The basic principle is that you could link a set of services (or multiple) to it, and that all Servers could see the services, but thats all, i suppose it'd be useful for those small nets who can't afford to run there own services, and resort to stuff which doesn't fit there needs, this way services could service multiple servers, but without advertising other users.

Of course, the services would have to be modified in order to not leak information about other servers to the link its communicating with, but its a curious concept, that i may do something about at some point :/

Then again it could be made to create a meshed network .. allow the servers to communicate via it, and if there is any conflicts between the 2 links , e.g. clients appearing twice, ignore the conflicts.

Its a curious concept, and I'll probably work on something to do with it at some point in the future , but sadly my workload sucks right now

Ah Well, Back to work.
