>what do you mean for publish/subscribe ?

To be specific:

* a system that allows me to notify people in a
  group or their software (on a private network)
  about the availability of updates of a document,
  like a spreadsheet; while the actual fetching of
  the document and synchronisation with local
  documents is delegated to a different service;

* a service that allows me to notify to the group
  when I am physically at the terminal, so that I
  can do instant messaging (maybe Lotus Notes has
  something like this).

exaclty :) spread implement for you subscribe/send/multicast msgs 
functions :) Obviously it's only a library, you should implement
a client/server program for your users :)

Maurizio,

  I gave only a quick look at the Spread site; do you
think that it can be used for publish/subscribe systems?
And can it be run on handhelds?

Ciao

[ANN] guile-spread

[Maurizio Boriani]

Hi all,
   this to announce guile spread:

        http://gna.org/projects/guile-spread/

--
This is a guile module that conveniently wraps the Spread C
libraries provided with the Spread 3.15.2 distribution. Spread is available at
http://www.spread.org/. Spread is a local/wide area group communication
toolkit that runs on most modern operating systems. It allows convenient
mechanisms for reliable multicasting information between applications as well
as providing many more complicate assurances.

thanks,

Interesting.  Do you have any example applications using this?

I saw that, but I think those are just tests for individual API calls,
aren't they?  I was wondering if you had any complete programs.
