--------------------------------------------
+1, tests pass and this also allows me to specify a hostname as a seed.

> EndPoint is problematic because there are two for each node: one for the TCP port (used for all data-related traffic), and one for UDP (for gossip). Often you will have a collection of one type of EndPoint, and want to look it up by the other type; this gives rise to abominations such as retrofitPorts and hard-to-find bugs.
> Replacing EndPoint with the standard and port-less InetAddress fixes these problems. (We push the actual tcp/udp ports into TcpConnection / UdpConnection, where they belong.)
