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

Bruno,

I've been using JXTA for nine months and this behaviour - returning just the
RDV peer - was
quite strange to me. Soon I discovered that if you look for local
advertisements in your cm
directory you will see many peer Advs returned by your general discovery
query !!!

Indeed, this is still quite strange. Somewhat it seems that the event
notification is not working properly or something like that. On the other
hand, the Advs are arriving and being stored in
your cm directory. Any ideas?
