Ok, lots of people are getting pissy about the LocalServ protocol (wrose's
binary client protocol). It's a really thin wrapper around the wrose
internal client interface and, as such, isn't good as a general Freenet
client protocol.

It was designed for the Python interface so that I could get a Python
client running without months of pissing about - and at the moment there are
no plans to remove it. 

however, general client writers shouldn't use it because there will be
a real freenet client protocol soon (hopefully) and Localserv might
end up doing lots of wrose-only stuff (debug, control, custom msg 
handlers etc).

The real client protocol looks like it might be based around FNP messages. 
SOAP and XML-RPC really suck for this - get over it.
