Hello James, I use Muscle since 2001 in all projects. All software of Carlipa (French editor of digital signage solution) use Muscle as basis of intercommunication from controller to the player. Thousand players are installed around the world such as Louis Vuiton Store, selectour, etc... Now I have 2 companies, one is editor of new functional language named "Anubis language" based on Categorical mathematic theory. This language has a muscle library in Anubis itself for inter-communication like BeOS system. The second company is Calexium which is manufacturer of MailFountain, an Internet appliance for soho. MailFountain is e-mail and e-mailing server programmed in Anubis, and all based messages communication are in muscle. For me, Muscle is very reliable, small and isn't gluttonous like actual new protocol and transport technologies like XML and the others. In our appliance we have only 16 Mb of memory. Muscle is very effective for embedded environment.

Do many people actually use MUSCLE? It seems very handy indeed to me. James
