I get the impression this is best done with system calls to sign up for 
Rendevouz.  And if that wont work, it will take multicasting.  It might 
be possible to send a multicast message from Revolution, but I know of 
no way to sign up for receiving them.

However, the IPC group is working on an alternate discovery method just 
for IPC for revolution.  Not standard, but maybe a stopgap.
