MaxShow probably shouldn't be used. It was introduced to allow multiple levels 
of reserve, e.g. MaxFloor is a quote posted to the public markets, MaxShow may 
be larger and is the amount sent around via IOIs to ECN subscribers. MaxFloor=0 
sounds like what you need for older protocol versions.

Hanno listed, in his earlier posts, the new fields used in FIX 5.0 and above.
