Hi WG, I had an off-list discussion with Anton that lead to the discovery of a new issue in -protocol, that of message fragmentation. -protocol specifies a message size limit of 1024 characters, but also assumes that message of this size can always be transmitted without (transport) fragemention. In the real world, datagram based transport mappings will probably not be able to assure that the message will not become fragmented. The MTU can at least be as low as 576 bytes.
Must this issue be addressed in the context of -protocol? If so, what is the best solution? Thanks, Rainer
