It limits your discovery of peers -<br> the neighbourhood view ether shows buddies from the school server OR<br> buddies from avahi (local network)<br> <br> In the new system, we will avoid this limitation. You will be able to<br> see buddies on the schoolserver and avhai at the same time. It will<br> not make a difference from a user perspective.<br> <br> If this makes the local network collaboration more widely used, I'm<br> excited about that. Obviously, direct local communication has less<br> latency than using a server. Less latency is a better user experience!<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I have just found python modules like socket[1] for low level networking interface and SocketServer[2] which simplifies the task of writing network servers.</div><div><br></div><div>Could using these modules be a better option? </div><div><br></div><div>[1] <a href="https://docs.python.org/2/library/socket.html">https://docs.python.org/2/library/socket.html</a></div><div>[2] <a href="https://docs.python.org/2/library/socketserver.html">https://docs.python.org/2/library/socketserver.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Abhijit</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex"> <br> Thanks,<br> Sam<br> On Mon, Jul 25, 2016 at 4:38 PM, Tony Anderson <<a href="mailto:tony_anderson@usa.net">tony_anderson@usa.net</a>><br> wrote:<br> > Hi, Sam<br> ><br> > I am still having a problem.
