Hi Jonathan,

    Yea, that looks familiar. As far as I remember, the qtzeroconf (either
the original, or my fork) doesn't use the avahi_record_browser api.

    I'd be happy to collaborate with you on building support for that.

    Should be pretty straight forward. Mostly we'll just need to copy and
modify the ServiceBrowser class, I think.
