[jgroups-dev] First view change and JChannel.connected

In JChannel.up() [line 1349], we have a comment which says that a 
channel can only be connected after JChannel.connect() returned.

So the first view change received by a node won't be able to send a 
message because the channel is still disconnected. However, subsequent 
view changes will be able to send messages.

I don't like this as it is not symmetrical: if someone gets a view 
change with itself as member of the view, it should be able to send 
messages.

I changed JChannel.up() and uncommented lines 1356ff, when a view change 
is received, then connected is set to true.

Do you see any adverse effects of this ? The test suite passes, except 
for the 2 tests which explicitly test this behavior (I changed that, so 
they pass now).
