That's a very interesting thing you bring up Phil and you're right. When someone sets up a wave server and clients connect everything is operating in a client server architecture. That is all the clients connect to the server and the server handles the data coming in and going out. From an end client all they're seeing is the information from the wave and the end client can also send commands out to create waves, add participants so on. At this current time there is no real way to allow clients to connect to the server. In my previous post I explain how I as a client connect to the server through SSH and in fact if I wanted to I could create many SSH enabled logins on my server and allow many people to connect to the server.
On the other hand we have a server to server architecture and that does use P2P. Essentially the way that works is if I want to send a wave to purser then I would start out as a client connected to my server using SSH and then I'd control the server by adding purser to a wave. The wave server is then going to tell my XMPP server (which is openfire) to connect to pursers server. The way it knows that it's going to connect to pursers server is because of the URL after @. In my case, I'm [email protected] therefore if you send a wave from your server (i.e, [email protected]) to me, your XMPP server is going to make the connection to my server and that would establish my server and your server as a P2P network.
