How well is "very well"? If you don't mind sharing, what's the largest real-world RELOAD deployment, and what fraction of nodes that attempted to establish a direct connection were in fact able to do so? (Based on hard data from live testing, not estimates.) I haven't followed p2psip for a couple years, I'm eager to hear how it's progressed! -david _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers@lists.zooko.com http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers
