No-homehost
-----------

Server side

    1. Add invocation type to -m [DONE]
    
    2. Switch starting of servers to look at .homehost, if it exists, respect it,
       otherwise start on current machine. [DONE]
       
    3. On start server drops a packet into .meta after starting the http server,
       pkt includes:
        a. host
        b. port
        c. Invocation type of process that started the server
        d. D card (packet create card)
        e. Process id of the server process
	
    4. Server will stay alive if it receives calls
    
    5. Server touches the pkt file every ten seconds
    
    6. On exiting the server removes its pkt file
    
Client side

    1. If no pkts in .meta start a server, wait 5-10 seconds and look again
    
    2. Read all pkts in .meta dir
    
    3. Sort servers by (take left most)
        a. Invocation type: dboard -> runner -> other -> exec
        b. Run duration: shortest -> longest
        c. Tie breaker is the shar1 hash for the pkt
	
    4. Ping the server and continue as before
    
WW15
. fill newview matrix with data, filter pipeline gui elements
. improve [script], especially indent handling

WW16
. split db into megatest.db (runs etc.) db/<something>.db
. release basic newview implementation
