It seems that most people are voting for the separate hub approach.

I'm happy to release a hubless V3 library and go back to the old way of
doing things.

If we agree, for example, that on Windows the hub service should have
the service name of "xplhub", an app can easily check for whether
a hub
is installed and warn the user if one is not found.

Likewise, an app can try binding to 3865 and warn the user if it doesn't
detect a hub.

Regards,

John
