[Forces-protocol] Re: Section 6 update

[Robert Haas <[e-mail]>]

Weiming.
I suggest we make a  new section "FE LFB and FE Protocol LFB" just 
before Section 5 "Common Header", instead of leaving this to section 
3.3.2. This will reflect the importance of those two LFBs in the 
operation of the protocol.

I'll post my text when ready, please do the same, and we'll merge.
