I'm not sure what you mean.  Are you talking about the Bonjour lib I 
made for the LUA code?

Would a generic Zeroconf interface for LUA address your concern?   I 
hope to make generic Zeroconf code for the LUA code to use, so it can be 
used to advertise any service using Bonjour or Avahi as appropriate.

Thanks for the input,
