Description Bastien Nocera 2004-09-09 13:28:44 UTC 
Using the Howl API, it would be easy (for someone who understands the sources)
to add a toolbar submenu that would show the list of "_http._tcp" services
discoverable on the local network.
Comment 1 Christian Persch 2004-09-09 14:44:25 UTC 
This one: http://www.porchdogsoft.com/products/howl/ ?
It's licensed under a BSD-like license, but "Portions of Howl are covered under
the Apple Public Source License (APSL)"; and APSL is GPL-incompatible
[http://www.fsf.org/licenses/license-list.html]. So we cannot use it.

Oh, and is this the same thing bug 144969 asks for?
Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2004-09-09 15:01:51 UTC 
Yes, it's a dup.
Howl, as shipped by Red Hat, is GPL-compatible. You just need to make sure to
remove the APSL-licensed bits. See this page for details:

Adding Alex to the CC: to explain the licensing issues.
Another possibility is using gmdns, which seems to fill the bill in that
particular case (might need addition of a resolver part though).
