[slinkelist] VNC, DCOM (was re: Multi-room controls)

How about a slinkeserv replacement. It would be two components a com server=
=20
for CDJ to talk to, and a normal tcp/ip server to talk to the actual slinke=
=20
device. The COM server would run on the same machine as CDJ, but would talk=
=20
to the tcp/ip sever instead of a slinke device. This would give the most=20
freedom of choice. People could still use CDJ, or they could just use the=20
tcp/ip server and communicate to it any way they'd like, web, jabber,=20
telnet or whatever comes out in the future.

Also it wouldn't require any changes to CDJ. Of course if the tcp/ip server=
=20
where stable enough eventually Colby might want to change CDJ to use it=20
instead.
