I dug into the code and this finally clicked and I understand the
problem of balancing configuration & extensibility.
I spend most of my time in the previous revision since it's all in
tack.
in looking through it I can understand why you want to re-design how
DHT works. Why remove the persister strategies and local DHT Client
though? that all seems to work without issue.

I think a db persister would be straight forward. were talking about a
single table with 6 columns. wrap ADO.Net with a simple facade and
call it a day.  you could add a deploy action to build the schema.
have it pull from the config file and add the table under another
schema. similar to Rhino.Security.

tyler i would be interested in your database implementation. for my
immediate need I ported Local DHT Client and OptimisticStatePersister
to my project to work against the latest RSB build.
