[zeromq-dev] Gossip discovery in CZMQ

[Pieter Hintjens]

Hi all,

For Zyre (and zbroker), I'm adding a gossip discovery service into
CZMQ. I've posted the API outline:
https://github.com/hintjens/czmq/commit/6081970ba7ac434e9d899bc81b7495a36a17b38c

The goal is to build clusters (like Zyre) using gossip discovery
instead of (or alongside) UDP beaconing.

If anyone has already written such protocols, I'm happy to learn from
your experience. Otherwise I'll build a simple gossip protocol from
scratch. It has to work across all connected transports.

Cheers
Pieter
