Hi,

I'm also on the search for a "full" spec.

This text is missing some interesting aspects, e. G. what happens when the 
field number needs more than 5 bits (I cannot imagine it's limited to 31 
fields per message).

So reverse engineering existing codec sources is the only way to get a spec 
for the binary encoding? (e. g. for developing our own language backend or 
an independent lightweight parser)

Thanks,
Markus
