As a non-programmer type, I'm curious what functionality could be preserved
without appletalk. The MacOS can be an IP-only AppleShare client, and IP printing
is now supported. What else was AppleTalk needed for?
Could an IP-only AppleTalk be ported to platforms that currently do not support
Netatlk, like DEC Unix?
