i have seen that several times.
briar shows all contacts offline
if i send a message to several contacts, it does not seems to try reinit connection
if i disconnect and reconnect mannually
then all contacts goes back online.
maybe sending messages to a offline client when most clients are offline shall make briar to reinit all connections.
this is more present on the 3g 4g networks.
