Hi Jens!  Sorry, we don't have a lot of stuff on architecture in the sense I
think you mean it -- although maybe we should.  The main thing to remember is
that a mod-pubsub client needs to live next to any application that will either
publish or subscribe to the mod-pubsub server -- sometimes this confuses people
who are used to a certain client-server relationship.  What else is there that
would be helpful to know?

Numerous individuals have in fact written demo apps that do not work in the
browser.  Look in the directories for Java, Perl, and Python in particular.
