Use mine, of course ;-)
But seriously: there is no one reason why I did not use Lex's package,
it's rather a combination of things, one more rational then the other
:-)
The focus of RMP is to make things a simple as possible for the user.
I wanted to keep RMP as isolated as possible from the rest of the image:
all code required for RMP is nicely contained within "Network-remote
message passing".
Lex's code is not as well documented as mine ;-)
Et cetera ...

I agree, some standardisation for Squeak to Squeak communication is a
Good Thing.
