They don't collide. SSK inserts collide, and propagate pre-existing data if it is different (both forwards and back). CHKs don't collide. In both cases, the insert will complete even if the data is already there. This means that the data will be propagated to the right place, even if it's locally cached, which is important IMHO. -- Matthew J Toseland - toad at amphibian.dyndns.org Freenet Project Official Codemonkey - http://freenetproject.org/ ICTHUS - Nothing is impossible.
