[Nfd-dev] UNIX stream faces

[Davide Pesavento]

Hi Anthony,

Outbound Unix sockets don't make sense. It would mean that one NFD
instance "connects" to another NFD on the same machine.
Can you tell us a bit more about what you're trying to do? What's your
use case and why do you need Unix sockets?

Thanks,
Davide
