But Do you need to do something to maintain the local host lists? |
Yep to both: you get addresses via pongs and can also use the ones from hosts you download from.
For an example see
SourceForge.net Repository - [phex] View of /phex/trunk/src/main/java/phex/host/CaughtHostComparator.java
(it shows how hosts are sorted to keep the best ones in the host catcher - this is executed extremely often!)
