OSC can go over TCP to avoid the packet loss issue (and messed up

If your
thinking of using a UDPish protocol, please use OSC.
Was definitely considering it. I suppose my question there might be,
while I don't have intentions for it currently, I don't want to rule out
the possibility of the FE running on a separate machine, and I would be
worried about packet loss with UDP over a network or possibly wireless
connection (Not looking for wireless for show conditions, more for say
in a theater show when I might be setting cue levels by running a FE on
my PDA). But yes OSC is definitely looking like a good possibility. Of
course I haven't looked to see if there is an OSC lib for my PDA much
less most PDAs;)
