Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hickory-dns/hickory-dns/issues/515

I'm wondering if the current implementation of mDNS in this library supports responding to mDNS queries in addition to issuing the queries themselves.

My use case is a p2p application over a local network in which nodes need the ability to advertise themselves as peers.

Thanks!

Not yet. I haven't gotten back to support an mDNS responder yet. This is a big goal of mine though...

On top of that some additional debugging needs to happen, as we've noticed that DNS-SD over mDNS isn't capturing entire sets of services on the network, so there are some bugs...
