Currently the list of clients connected to the NetworkTables server is only available on the server itself. It would be useful for debugging purposes for clients (e.g. dashboards) to display this information. This can be done within the existing protocol by publishing the connection list via a meta-table similar to FMSInfo.
This could be done without modifying ntcore itself by adding a higher-level (e.g. at WPILib level) connection listener that updates the meta-table.
