Paolo asks the server for Pippo´s IP, then Paolo starts a direct connection to Pippo.

Hi

Really need to establish how this communication will occur. Will the chat clients poll the server at some interval? Or will each chat client run as both a client and a server - ie both sending messages / commands and waiting to receive them?
