Re: how can make searching for peers on jxta more accurate?

Mike,

Could network optimization in JXTA 2.3.5 then explain why the discovery 
service,  when queried for PeerAdvertisement, only returns  the  RDV/ 
SuperPeer  Peer Advertisement.  By returning solely the RDV/ SuperPeer 
Peer Advertisement, JXTA  not only answer the generic query for 
PeerAdvertisement but also has the lowest network load. I understand 
that it is what JXTA is aims at.

Maybe your answer to that posting also answered the question I asked in 
the posting I wrote a little earlier "JXTA 2.3.5 New Peer Discovery 
Behaviour".

If so, how should I proceed to get a even partial, but reasonable list  
(or even a count) of peers that are within a peer group?
Can you make a "edge peer" Advertisement query to the discovery service?

Thanks,

Bruno
