While it may be true that the underlying protocol is still operating on certain assumptions, it is no longer true that 3.00 muds can act as hubs. They don't have the capacity for it. As you point out, they are only allowed one connection. That one connection is outbound ONLY. The mud cannot accept inbound IMC connections from any source, including a hub, since there's no port set aside to listen for them. So even if the network as a whole is still assuming it to be a peering setup, the mud code is at least acting as a client-only connection. Now all that needs to happen is to have the hubs act as servers for their muds and the main problem will be solved.
