[GNUnet-developers] core - MessagePartHandler (what is the HostIdentity *sender?)

[Christian Schulte]

typedef int (*MessagePartHandler)(HostIdentity * sender,
                                  p2p_HEADER * message);


The HostIdentity isbviously not necessarily related to a direct connection 
between my and the originating node of this message. An established 
communication channel like a tcp-socket or a udp-session.
So when my message handler gets called what can i expect the sender to be.
Can it be any node in the network or just one of those to which i have a 
direct connection ?
