Well, it's official - the original end-to-end design principal of the Internet is dead, deceased, and buried. Henceforth, there will be Clients, and there will be Servers, and all nodes will be permanently classified as one or the other, with no changing or intermixing of status allowed.
Er. That's not news. That's been the state of the art for what, 15+ years or so now? SIP (because it's peer to peer) and P2P are really the only things that actually give a damn about it.
No one is going to check out their neighbors website running on their neighbors computer if the neighbor didn't make an effort to make their computer a server (by assigning DNS, running server software, etc) regardless of NAT etc etc.
