Sorry to revive an old thread, but a couple of questions to Michael or any discovery developers:

- Did you consider using SLP (c.f. http://openslp.org/) instead of SMTP?
- Did you consider any other discovery protocols?
- Is there a pointer to the discussions/debates that drove the current state?

Thanks!
