Add avahi, another mDNS, Zeroconf, Bonjour, Redezvous, etc. implementation
...but with a twist. Avahi is a D-BUS based mDNS solution from
Freedesktop.org.
Avahi provides Service discovery on a local network -- this means that you
can plug your laptop or computer into a network and instantly be able to view
other people who you can chat with, find printers to print to or find files
being shared. This kind of technology is already found in MacOS X
(branded 'Rendezvous', 'Bonjour' and sometimes 'ZeroConf') and is very
convenient.

A lot of the ground work for this port was provided by ahze.
