A map of the new "clustering" network plan for Gnutella:
O = "outsider" (anyone using a non commercial client, Gnucleus, XoloX, etc..)
B = BearShare (aka BlackHole)
L = LimeWire
Code:

So how do you like being the
OUTSIDER ?
Think about what it takes for one outsider to reach another
outsider across the "BlackHole" !
Does this serve Vinnie $$$ or Gnutella?
