IMNSHO, those ,MOB nodes should never have made it into the nodelist. Since
they can not accept incoming connections they have the connectivity of a point.
Systems that have the connectivity of a point should BE points.

This may change with the coming of IPv6 for mobile networks...


Cheers, Michiel
