Pascal,

Thanks for the input. Trying to evaluate the overhead of using the traffic
class bits. I assume we want to have one dedicated traffic class for the
join request/reply, which tells nodes NOT to take that traffic into account
for deciding whether to add cells.

- what must be standardized, if anything?
- what would a join request now look like, and what's the hit in terms of
byte count?
