yggdrasil-bonjour bridge
i wanted to chat via bonjour (without being tied to this or that server) by using yggdrasil.
this is kinda a solution for me right now. details in the repository readme.
i wanted to chat via a messenger that supports open standard for serverless messaging: XEP-0174.
so i started by writing my own yggdrasil messenger that would use the above mentioned xmpp extension but also use my own implementation of mdns that would tell the messenger about the yggdrasil contacts.
implementing my own crossplatform mdns turned out to be hard and i deferred it.
this solution works for me. it should work with any bonjour client and you can chat with people via bonjour over yggdrasil network.

we have tested it today with folks from yggdrasil xmpp.
works well, file transfers don't work.
bonjour has no mucs, so this feels limiting.
otherwise very cool, serverless chat.
