Thx.
How did you solve the problem of a new relay joining the network?
I guess it must be announced to the other relays.
Does each relay need to know all the other relays?
Is a central instance needed for collecting/managing/distributing
or making available the relay-list?
Is the user bound to a specific relay (his "home" relay)?

by the enemy, the user data should still be secure/protected.
Thank you Mutlu. That is how relay is designed: traffic is p2p encrypted
between endpoints, and these opaque blobs are transmitted to/from relay inside
a separate session using different nacl keys (see 3.3.2
in the spec for details). Adversary taking over relay can get the meta
(which is fairly easy to obscure with fake messages to non-existent HPKs) but
not communication contents between endpoints.
