There is some initial mDNS implementation work in gnome cvs, in the
"gmdns" module. I don't know the status or quality of this
implementation, but I hope that eventually I'd somehow be able to use it
for the gnome-vfs network:// module (availible from the Nautilus
Computer location) so that i can show e.g. local DAV servers (i.e. like
osx rendezvous).
