NSStream has the method

You throw in a NSInputStream** for an inputStream argument and similar
for the outputstream. Now my question is: What the heck is the status
for these streams? Did they got assigned autoreleased streams or did I
get something that is retained? I.e. should I do a [inputStream
retain] after this method or not??
Hrm. There really should at least be a comment in the documentation on
the web about that, but the standard Cocoa retain/release rules apply:
if you didn't create it via alloc/init, you should be doing your own
retain/releases on it.
In this case, the streams you get back from this call have already had
the autorelease message sent to them.
