I've setup a permanent seed node -- it's doing some testing at the moment and I'm finalizing some changes to the seeder code. When both are up, I'll post the DNS names, and make updates to the repos I have. The updates will help any NEW builds AUTOMATICALLY find peers and hosts without need for a xencoin.conf file to add nodes and connections. The first phase of stabilizing the network as far as connectivity is almost complete.
Next will be beta testing of the client updates for a release.
