Good question - I'd like it to be sufficiently extensible that you could
implement something like Gibson's 'Magic' (http://magic.gibson.com)
For those who don't know, Magic is an open system for the transfer of up to
32 channels of audio and midi over ethernet...
There are very complete specifications available at
http://magic.gibson.com/magicv21.pdf
I know this is a bit off-topic, but it could really put OBOS in good
standing as a DAW platform; if someone could take a look at the specs, I'd
be curious to hear how viable you think this would be, particularly what
factors would limit/prevent this, and they would differ between net_server,
BONE etc
