The API is a little bit grotesque, but I'm not sure bonobo-activation is
the answer for what I'm trying to do. I understood that
bonobo-activation would only work if the two processes (client and
server) were on the same machine, whereas my server application will be
serving numerous clients on remote machines. If I'm wrong then please
let me know, and I'll take a look at the bonobo-activation docs.
