I would rather leave the spec as is. There are places where short encoding is natural, but there are also many place in picoquic in which the code reserves two bytes, encode an element, find the coded length, and then update the length. Yes there are workarounds but as many said, please keep the rules flexible. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
