Exactly.

I haven't really used them yet, but since they are more actively
developed, I suppose a decision should be made at some point about
whether to leave dumpOSC/sendOSC in Pd?

Since the mrpeach objects don't include both network and OSC stuff in
the same object, perhaps replacement objects could be created using
his routines, a simple mash-up of the peach udpsend/receive and his
packOSC routines.  Perhaps it could even be done as an abstraction.

Would there be any point doing that?

Mainly I just think it would be simpler if we standardized on a single
OSC implementation..
But then again it would be some work just to replace objects that we
already have.
