No. If you want a node to talk to you, you'd need to tell the network to send a message to it saying you want a connection. That's something we don't have a system for at the moment. And it's not as easy as it sounds if we want it to be fast and to scale. Including one or more shadow nodes that we keep connections to in our node reference as given out to the rest of the world is one way to solve this problem. > > > > -Allow us to go back to queueing messages on connections rather than on > > > peers, this is probably a good thing as it should help get rid of the > > > HUGE message send times that have become a problem on latest unstable. > > Not necessarily.
