Closed mikehearn closed 9 years ago

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 190

I'd like to be able to completely purge the list of peers and supply a new PeerDiscovery.
All peers not discovered by the new discovery should be disconnected.

Currently, I need to tear down PeerGroup for this.

PeerGroup is now a Guava service which doesn't support being restarted. Restarting things
is trickier than it looks, supporting it doesn't seem like a big deal given that you
can just recreate the object.
