Yes. The only thing that makes a node fail that check is being in its own seed list. But if the node is in other nodes' seed lists, those nodes will contact it anyway. This strongly implies that the "contains()" check there is the wrong test, but I've never nailed that down and/or filed a ticket on it. Conversation at the summit suggests I should, making a note to do so... =Rob
