I've updated the BSD-specific patch (which is against our present port), and the code has just been checked into Avahi SVN with some fixes. It would be great if someone could find time to look at integrating this. This way, we get a working autoipd until Fredrik (who will be working on Zeroconf for his Google SoC project) can make progress on a flavour of autoipd which is suitable for the base system. P.S. If anyone out there is working on wide-area DNS-SD, please make yourselves known to us... Regards, BMS
