Turner, looks like I was not the only one confused by the terminology used in the white paper with what I have been seeing in the source code!:) "skip" operation is not implemented. Instead "retain" operation is used, which seems more self-explanatory. Position is not associated with each operation, which I think is why "retain" is needed in this case.
