Hey Rob!

Same as it always was, FSP-1042 draft 7.  I only see Type 2, Type 2+ and Type 2.2.  Beats me what Type 2e is although I probably have seen a document somewhere describing it, along with a bunch of others that I have never run across in a functional tosser ... yet.

 RS> I think the differentiation I've done between FSC-39 and FSC-48
 RS> compliant packets is important

For sure but only if it doesn't muddy the waters of compatibilty.  There is a big hole that exists that requires patching and I believe that is what FSP-1042 draft 7 attempts to fill.

 RS> I'll keep doing comparisons between the docs and my code see if
 RS> that'll jar it loose.

That sounds like a very good plan to me.

Life is good,
Maurice
