Hi,

I've written a small package zeroconf.el, which offers an interface to
service discovery as specified by zeroconf[1,2]. The communication to
the Avahi daemon[3], the zeroconf implementation for GNU/Linux (and
other systems), is based on D-Bus signals.

As demonstration of this feature, I've written few lines of example
code, which updates dynamically the "Postscript Printer" menu as local
or network printers appear or disappear. This code could go into
ps-samp.el.

Another feature of zeroconf.el is publishing of own service. But I would
regard as an inferior feature.

Any objections to install this in the trunk?

Best regards, Michael.
