[OSC_dev] newby osc address question

[Joseph Malloch]

Gaspard,

You could have a look at Remy Muller's oscbonjour:

And also the OSC-based mapping system we built in the IDMIL - we use a
multicast bus to handle instance registration and other administrative
traffic, after which messages can be sent peer-to-peer using the
instance name instead of IP and port. We only have a Max/MSP
implementation working currently, but the ICMC and LNCS papers linked
on the webpage might be interesting for you:
