"""

this is the only process to talk to the dmx hardware. other clients
can connect to this server and present dmx output, and this server
will max ('pile-on') all the client requests.

this server has a level display which is the final set of values that
goes to the hardware.

clients shall connect to the xmlrpc server and send:

  their PID (or some other cookie)

  a length-n list of 0..1 levels which will represent the channel
    values for the n first dmx channels.

server is port 8030; xmlrpc method is called outputlevels(pid,levellist).
