could someone please clarify these points regarding the invalidated nicknames:
* to be clear, 2017-07-15 was only a few days ago so this means that more than
99% of ALL ring nicknames are invalid and most every ring user must register a
new nickname
* are peers who have the now invalid nickname on their contacts list still able
to contact the user with that deleted nickname by using the reference on their
contact list? - i ask this because IIRC these references can not be deleted -
or is it the case that anyone having the deleted nickname as a contact must
re-add the new nickname (even if it is identical to the deleted one)
* if it is the case that your username (e.g. 'fred42') was among the affected
then will the new system allow re-registering that identical nickname (e.g.
'fred42') ? or is it not possible for i nor anyone else to be 'fred42' now ?
