Er, thanks! I suspect it was another of your suggestions that I've
since stolen :-)
I have a theory .... (obvious Monty Python quote deleted).
I have a another theory. If we:
o deprecate ``:'' sequence IDs
o introduce a transport
protocol that works
o ban the transport of new/improved
packets using the old/broken
transport protocol.
then there aren't any problems.
