The first one, because every node has a route to reach the desired
destination.

Here there are some numbers:
http://lab.dyne.org/Netsukuku_scalability
Briefly, to calculate them:
1) go in map.h
2) calculate the sizeof `struct map_node'
3) multiply it per MAXGROUPNODE
4) sum it to `(sizeof map_rnode) *MAXRNODEBLOCK`
5) do the same things for gmap.h (map_gnode) and bmap.h
~> #3: Is a gnode a group of "physically near" nodes?
A gnode of level 0 is. If you're are talking of higher levels, then it is not
necessarily true.
~> #5: in a qspn round of a higher level (i.e. level 2), who answers for

The bnodes (border nodes) replies for their own gnodes.
They know if the gnode has the all links closed, because the bnodes are
coordinated, i.e. each bnode knows the number of closed links of the gnode.
~> #6: how exactly is the RSA key used for ANDNA long?
I don't understand what are you meaning with `long'.
For how long:
It is used forever, i.e. until its owner deletes it and generates a new one.
The same key is used to register all the other hostnames of the same node.
How long is the key (what's the key size):

#define ANDNA_PRIVKEY_BITS 1024

Isn't a fractal just recursive?
Chaos here is meant only as: ``live algorithm "executed" on the network'' &&
``minimum variations of inputs --> great variations of output''.
It is not strictly related to the golden Chaos Theory.
In the QSPN v2 the `chaos' thing isn't mentioned anymore to avoid such
misunderstoods. Sorry about that.
