correction: I forgot that Roman's netpd uses iemnet, not netsend/netreceive, which I guess is why his jack~ implementation is working better than mine. I can switch over as well, so I don't have any urgent need to send replies from netreceive -u to netsend -u as I had thought.
It would still be good if the new netsend/receive were able to do this, both to maintain 0.50 compatibility, and to allow vanilla-only access to that ability.
The 0.50 version actually didn't do it particularly well - datagrams were limited to 1000 bytes, which was stupid of me. It still got used by others I think.
thanks again... Miller

To Pd dev (of interest to netsend/netreceive experts :) -
One thing that was possible in pd 0.50 was to "send" to netreceive -u ... this was added by Shahrokh Yadegari a year or so ago. I think it gets used; for instance I don't see how to implement jacktrip without it (as Roman Haefeli did in his netpd system and as I'm now trying to do in a Camomile plugin).
Would it be onerous to bring that capability back? For the moment we can fall back to 0.50 but we'd need a way to do this, even if it's impossible to do exactly compatibly with 0.50.
thanks Miller
