    No, but I'm going to start looking ASAP. A google search on revconnecttome
    turned up some interesting hits:
    
    From:
    http://www.lwave.ca/DCHub/protocol.html
    
    
        $RevConnectToMe
    
    A passive client may send this to cause a peer to send a $ConnectToMe back.
    
        $RevConnectToMe <nick> <remoteNick> 
    
        * <nick> is the sender of the message.
        * <remoteNick> is the user which should send to $ConnectToMe.
    
    The server must send this message unmodified to <remoteNick>. If 
    <remoteNick> is an active client, it must send a $ConnectToMe to <nick>. 
    If not, it must ignore the message.
