I am not in favour of shortening the strings.
I just hope that there won't be any protocol identifiers with whitespaces in
the future like "ISO 18000-6B". Clients would have to parse the text field
and distinguish whitespace as list item delimiters from whitespaces in the
protocol identifiers themselves.
In Table 3, the LLRP spec says values 2-255 are reserved for future use. The
interpretation in llrpdef.xml and LLRP.xsd is that values other than 0 and 1
are not allowed. I wonder whether this is too restrictive. Does future use
imply that this will be possibly handled in LLRP version 1.x? or via a
separate document in which these values are assigned?
