Hi all,

We’ve submitted an update to our draft, to add text for the following:
	- there is a trade-off between expressiveness allowed by a protocol description language, and the safety, computability, and security of the parser code generated for the protocols described; and
	- that any protocol description language should allow for protocols to develop and evolve across multiple documents.

Comments and questions welcome.

Thanks,

Stephen

> Abstract:
>   This document describes a machine-readable format for specifying the
>   syntax of protocol data units within a protocol specification.  This
>   format is comprised of a consistently formatted packet header
>   diagram, followed by structured explanatory text.  It is designed to
>   maintain human readability while enabling support for automated
>   parser generation from the specification document.  This document is
>   itself an example of how the format can be used.
