i am afraid, that they do not make it easier for the user to use
mrpeach/osc. at the least the goal was to make [tcpserver] work at all
for OSC transportation. [tcpsocketserver] is supposed to be used the
same way as one would use [tcpserver].
as IOhannes already mentioned, the problem is, that TCP is a
stream-based protocol and packet-agnostic, whereas OSC is a packet based
protocol and wants packets to be received exactly the same way as they
were sent. [tcpserver] - since it talks plain TCP - cannot guarantee
that.

do you mean, it would make sense to have something 'abstracted out',
that does OSC un/packing and transport in a single class? i could try,
if i get clear picture of how it should be done.

yo, as others already pointed out, those are part of svn in mrpeach.
