unix domain sockets
#9
but does the Python coder need to be aware that unix domain is being used, or is that a hidden detail? i'm looking for cases where the Python coder needs to know, or needs to code socket calls for that. even better would be a case where a choice could be made and unix domain addressing would be the better (design) choice.

i need to send datagrams to one of three servers over the internet but i am wanting to split out the decision of which to send to, to a different process. it is the transfer of these datagrams between these two processes where i am considering unix domain in lieu of inet domain. the reverse is alao involved. the decision of where to send them to is based on where the previous reply datagrams come from, including load balancing. this is all to be opaque to the process generating the datagrams.
