So opennet... Fix the node specialization, never swap it, and connect to
destination (with LRU). This will comfortably interface with darknet
swapping? What about nodes which have both darknet and opennet
references? The hybrid would be messy - half the network (well actually
1% of the network) has location swapping and fixed links, and the other
half (99%) has fixed specialization and mobile links... and the nodes
which are on both have a few fixed links, a swappable location, and many
mobile links.
This is sufficiently worrying that I'd have to see it simulated before
implementing it. And my gut feeling is that it will be considerably more
difficult in terms of load management and routing churn.
