I call mrpeach/net canonical not because I believe is it perfect and bugfree, but rather because it is the established, proven way of doing more elaborate networking.
i think it is not canonical as it tends to change it's API to workaround certain problems.
Its the best option out there. iemnet is just a fork of that with some specific changes. iemnet is very new and not tested as much, so it seems a really bad idea to start basing things off of it,
i'd rather not read the above.
anyhow, i definitely wouldn't call iemnet the "canonical". i think canonicity should be more about the object's API than about the implementation itself.
like how to package things in Debian, etc. Who knows, perhaps mrpeach/net and iemnet will merge again.
that is desireable from my pov (but there is still some work todo on the iemnet part, which i would like to be not hindered by legacy code)
