Update ILP Address spec based on discussions at community summit

adrianhopebailie opened this issue · comments

Some insights from the community summit that need to be incorporated into the ILP Addresses RFC:

  • No more address prefixes (all nodes have an address)
  • We don't address ledgers (ledgers are not directly part of the network)
  • Routing info is exchanged using ILP packets using the special peer.route
  • Packets addressed with peer.* are never forwarded (these are bilateral)

NOTE: Some of this may be better suited to be added to a routing protocol spec

Addressed in #426
