[Bitcoin-development] Network version increase

2012-04-02 Thread Pieter Wuille
Hello all,

Mike Hearn has submitted a pull request to add a pong message in reply to a 
ping.

This warrants an upgrade of the network protocol version number, which is since 
BIP14
independent from the version numbers of the reference client.

Any opinions about a numbering scheme? Currently the value 6 is used. We 
could
simply start increasing the number one by one now for every change, or we could
do a cleanup to 10 first, and start incrementing from there.

It would be nice to have 10 as the baseline, frozen protocol.

Yes, I think increasing with one is enough for now. Let's not get ahead of
ourselves :)
