I think that the project lead has decided to move to flex, so the issue
has become moot.

However, it would be nice for there to be some reasonably discoverable
documentation for these things.

The questions I would have had have been answered in what you wrote: we
want to have outbound sockets (via net.DialTCP, and in the first pass
access to syscall, but in the light of another answer from Ian, this
will likely go away).

thanks
