streams also exist in unix.  i find it very educational that
plan 9 does well without streams.

queue quote from the little prince.

it would be intersting to introduce an ip-peer protocol,
if only for educational purposes.  xns would be usable
on regular ethernet equipment.  unfortuantely there
are many things that need to get done more.
