network server question

[richard welty <steinmetz!welty@uunet.uu.net>]

i'm in the process of developing a server for a local
application.  in reviewing the source code for nfile,
i've noticed that nfile is implemented using a :flavor
option for net:define-server which, as far as i can tell,
is not documented.

my question:  what are the pros and cons of using a function
for the server-top-level vs. using the flavor with a
:server-top-level method?  should i take the lack of documentation
on the flavor implementation as a warning sign, and stick with
a function?
