i'd like to help out on this
@Wingie Sounds great. I've assigned this task to you. :-)
Thanks! had a few queries though.
Expansion on Sp3ct3's answer:
(5). Webpages cannot open up sockets. Applications (browsers, etc.) open up sockets. If they are using a proxy (openfaux in this case), you will not have to worry about clients opening up direct socket connections to other servers. If they do, it is a conscious decision the client app does and not something a proxy has to worry about.
Problem solved then lol. On Dec 9, 2013 4:27 PM, "Michael Ma" notifications@github.com wrote:

i've done a first pass on the API over here. dd9197a37843508ea780a5996d75d089b385e247 i've also made some changes to testclient.py to illustrate usage.
We need to get some communication going between the client and server, this will require a well documented API outlining what the server needs on a request from a client, what functions are available to a client (and the parameters for each of those requests) and then what a server request will return.
