Want a wire protocol description (ala RFC) #106

Open gdamore opened 7 years ago

It would be helpful to have a description of the wire protocol -- i.e. what actually gets sent in each direction. I can figure this out from the code, for sure, but I'm thinking that other implementors would find it useful to have a document describing the wire protocol.

I'm interested in possibly using this protocol over an L2 type network, and I may need to make some changes (e.g. 64-bit conversation IDs), and having a formal protocol description would make my job a bit easier.

Good point, I will write a wiki page once I find a good template.

It would REALLY a huge help, because it's really hard to get full relevant knowledge without proper specification.
