uint8_t signature[8]; /* "LPKSHHRH" */
== Lennart Poettering, Kay Siver, Harald Hoyer, Red Hat
I don't know the details but I heard at some point Kay and Lennart had a falling out within the project. By the time I got involved in journald development @ CoreOS, neither Kay nor Harald were visibly participating anymore... It was kind of annoying, as it left just Lennart to review any journald PRs, who was obviously busy, but eventually got around to it. I think it's worth noting that despite being the person who receives all the systemd hate, Lennart didn't promptly abandon maintenance of the project after getting installed everywhere.

You do realise avahi-client is a standalone CLI resolver, and Avahi is what both Gnome (gvfs) and KDE (kio) use to find mDNS clients on the network?
There's also nss-mdns at https://github.com/avahi/nss-mdns but it is mostly unmaintained.
I'm Just going to plug myself here:

It's been a while since I actively progressed on the project but it works and would probably be a good starting point for anyone wanting to do further work in this direction.
