Thanks for the vs_set explanation.

I've solved all the basic spread problems I've had :-)  Messages
flying backwards and forwards, machines joining and leaving the group,
all working fine.

Only got 1 problem to work out how to solve: given that the config
file says "there are the machines we know about and these are the
segments they're on", how do I get access to the current "view" of the
network?

I can see from my membership list which machines are active, but is
there any way (short of writing code to re-parse the config file) to
see what segments there should be and which machines are in which
segment?

Any pointers welcome
Rachel
