Don't fall to his attack too easily, Raphael (I name it attack, because it 
seems to have been received as one - if it wasn't intended as one, please be 
more careful with your wording, Nikolay - and remember that some people are 
still pissed because of unfounded verbal attacks by Shareaza fanboys). 

The Gnutella flooding model knows possible routes as soon as it comes into the 
reach of the intra UP QRTs. 

It takes that as far as it is useful in an extremely dynamic network. Anything 
above that creates much overhead which would decrease the experience for 
users. 

Best wishes, 
Arne
