Re: [manet] [Technical Errata Reported] RFC5444 (3496)

I like that protocols use the packet sequence number, if thoes protocols
you refered to don't use the packet SQN, then I recommend they reconsider.
I was always interested in the funkfeuer ETX" draft I even asked you to
start it again but never seen your announcement of new draft, still waiting,

As you know, I may use WE or I when I discuss, you never know how many
machines are with me while I am participating (on their behalf
sometimes) from my room :-)
