chg: use validate to make sure the server is up to date This patch uses the newly added validate method to make sure the server has loaded the up-to-date config and extensions. If the server cannot validate itself, the client will receive instructions and follow them to try to reach another server that is more likely to validate itself. The instructions can be a redirect (connect to another server address) and/or an unlink (stops an out-dated server).
