Between TCPMUX and ETSN, all else being equal, ETSN is simpler and doesn't have the built in "autoportscanner" HELP command.
On the other hand, TCPMUX is already defined, has a port assigned etc. No need to get it through IETF and IANA again.
I get the arguments for both sides about it being Internet-facing, so as to that I will simply shrug. For non-Internet facing internal network kinda stuff it's still a great solution, regardless, so I cleaned up my code and pushed it to github, if anyone wants to play with it: https://github.com/JImmyFrasche/etsn (warning: I only tested it with the example code in the readme)
Nice!Still, AFAIU it works only inside a single process. What I would like to is to have is a daemon that would listen for incoming connections and then pass them via UNIX domain socket's SCM_RIGHTS feature to the registered *processes*.
