 "Foolscap" is the name for the next-generation RPC protocol, intended to replace Perspective Broker. It has been under development (on and off) by Brian Warner for several years.

-The latest Foolscap code lives in a mercurial repository, at http://foolscap.lothar.com/. The documentation is the doc/ directory and includes both the protocol specification and a short user's manual.
