Sorry, didn't mean to impune you, but I don't remember who's done what,
so I just took the easy route of asking the obvious question.
The other thing that occurred to me, much later, was zeroconf probably
requires broadcasting to be allowed through the firewall, so that
clients can announce themselves, and the rest can notice their arrival.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying
to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
