Yes, and in fact one of the things I like about Viewstamped Replication is that it does not describe replication in terms of RPC, but rather in terms of message passing, which I believe maps better to the domain of consensus, and which nudges people in the right direction when they start to think about their messaging protocol.
Thanks, hope to see you at the live launch event in September! All the details are in the repo linked above.
Beyond some of these new techniques, what I'm really most excited about for the live launch event in September is the back-to-back interviews with Brian Oki (Viewstamped Replication 1988) and James Cowling (Viewstamped Replication Revisited 2012). It's going to be a special moment, celebrating the pioneering consensus and replication protocol and the people behind it.
