If I recall correctly (and that could be an issue), Olle posted 
something a month or so ago relative to this. I believe he was heading 
in a direction that essentially did away with this friend, peer, user 
stuff. I'm thinking that same post talked about which parameters were 
used for finding a match, and the ordering of those parameters (eg, IP, 
username, secret).

I didn't save the post, but maybe he'll read this and repost something 
more accurate then my memory. ;)
