If the BRSKI team agree that you want a flood (i.e. unsolicited announcement)
for pledge<->proxy and discovery+synchronization request (i.e. solicited
announcement) for proxy<->registrar, I will suggest complete text for these,
and implement a Python demo version.

So, BRSKIsts please confirm what you want.
