[distcc] distcc zeroconf with osx screensaver

[Martin Akesson]

Hello all, this mail is mainly directed to those of you who are 
developing on Mac OSX with compiling help from distcc.  Most of you are 
probably aware of Apples new IDE XCode that will replace Project 
Builder which includes distcc for distributed builds.  What many might 
not know is that Apple has added zeroconf, aka. rendezvous on the Mac, 
to this distcc version which is a really nice feature to a already 
superb program.

Now, my real intent with this message was only to let those developers 
who will use distcc zeroconf, be it Apples version or a variant there 
of, know of a OSX screen saver I created for this purpose.  The screen 
saver will start/stop distcc whenever the saver is running and works 
really well in a environment with many of developers.  You can even run 
your favorite screen saver from within the distcc saver.   :)

The saver is BSD licensed and source will hopefully be released shortly 
aswell.  Comments and ideas are welcome!
