Why? Does it really need to? It seems like with more than a dozen or two nodes in the network there is no good real reason for a node to change is specialization. For this reason I have always been in favor of just greatly simplifying routing by hard coding a nodes specialization and treating it more like a dht. Especially if we go with a large routing table. The odds of not having any other node in any particular area of the keyspace are small and even if there are none just route to the node with the nearest specialization. It's specialization would widen to account for the area that is lacking and routing would be much simpler. -- Tracy Reed http://copilotconsulting.com
