I'm just learning my way around the BeOS/OBOS networking
(and networking in general), so please, be gentle. :)

How would you say the BeOS Network Kit compares to/with
the ACE (ADAPTIVE Communication Environment)?

In NetworkKit.h, there's a comment:
/*
* Nettle forward declarations
*
* The Nettle networking object library is compiled into the netapi kit
* and used by these kit classes. [snip]
*/
Is it a better question to ask, how does Nettle compare to/with
ACE?

The way I understand it, the BeOS currently has 2 networking API's
built into it: the Network Kit Class Library and the Posix Sockets
library calls. How could ACE fit into this? Who might get implemented
in terms of whom?
hmm.... I wonder: Could the Network Kit methods be currently
implemented in terms of the Sockets calls?
