I have received comments from the ISE (Independent Submissions Editor) on 
NETVER/PROTVER and I would would like to get the list's consensus on how to 
proceed.

NETVER vs PROTVER
-----------------

The problem: the I-D uses PROTVER rather than NETVER, however 2.8.0 only 
supports NETVER.

The argument in favour of PROTVER is that the command is not asking for the 
version of the _network_.  It is asking for the version of the _protocol_.

The argument in favour of NETVER is that it is currrently implemented in 2.8.0.

Should the I-D revert to NETVER?   I will follow whatever the list decides.

Roger
