+    oslSocketAddr is a pointer to a Berkeley struct sockaddr.

+    The intention was to hide all Berkeley data-structures from
+    direct access past the osl-interface.
+
+    The current implementation is internet (IP) centered. All
+    the constructor-functions (osl_create...) take parameters
+    that will probably make sense only in the IP-environment
+    (e.g. because of using the dotted-Addr-format).
+
+    If the interface will be extended to host other protocol-
+    families, I expect no externally visible changes in the
+    existing functions. You'll probably need only new
+    constructor-functions who take the different Addr
+    formats into consideration (maybe a long dotted Addr
