I've been wondering about this, too, for quite a while now.  In 
Version.java, we have:

    /** Oldest build of Fred we will talk to */
    public static final int lastGoodBuild = 654; // jan 20; ARK insert fixes

And yet, I see node versions earlier than this in my routing table.

While we're at it, one more question.  :-)  Why is it that the sfHealHtl 
setting is always automatically reduced by 2 when one goes to begin a 
download?

Oh, and one more thing.  :-)  Could we rearrange the layout in 
OpenConnectionManager.java (new style) so that the order of 
incoming/outgoing, receiving/transmitting is consistent?
It's really annoying to have the first two lines of the report in one order 
and the next two in the opposite order.

Thanks.
