Uh, I think the resolution was the other way around for one and as you say for the other. Let me separate the two.. First for the size of i, in section 6.3.4. The max value of this is controlled by the max-node-multiple values with is limited in the XML grammar to xsd:int. It never shows up on the wire so I think this is defined as 4 bytes. Given the need to interate through all values up to the limit computing a hash each time, people will need to stick to small values. On the other one, d in section 8, I think we decided on 8 bits was enough. Back in draft-ietf-p2psip-base-13 the relax NG for turn-density defined it as and xsd:int which did not match the unit8 in for d in section 8 but we moved the XML grammar to be xsd:unsignedByte in version 14 of the draft. So, I think we decided 4 bytes for the first and 1 byte for the second. I think the doc is consistent with that. Is there a part that is inconsistent where I need to update it.
