Ofcourse a specialiased protocol (ipp is printing only?) is more effecient than slp, however slp is designed as a service locater, hence slp ~ service location protocol. In fact it's an integral part of zeroconf/rendezvouz. It's because of SLP that iChat can automaticly discover other iChat's on the local subnet. Lets keep it in main, developers might actually learn about it ;). You probably already know that, and I agree that it sucks to have yet another daemon. I wonder why there is so few gconfd like daemons.
