Communication Architecture

Communication medium 1-1 duplex ordered reliable and a request/reply notify protocol defined on top (orchid-base mostly)
Protocol definition plain objects that define nothing beside serialization/deserialization and English descriptions of invariants (orchid-api)
Active objects smart objects that represent resources and communicate their modification through the protocol, sorted into 3 categories for asymmetric communication: common/extension/host. Some ext/host logic is defined in orchid-base to ensure that other behaviour within it can rely on certain global functionality. ext/host also manage their respective connection state (orchid-base, orchid-extension, orchid-host)
Application (client, server) binaries that use active objects to implement actual application behaviour (orcx, orchid-std)
