šļø Summary of this message: The proposal suggests modifying user-agent strings to create a hierarchy from protocol, variant, gui, flavour, and build for easier parsing.
š Original message:>From talking with Patrick Strateman (phantomcircuit), he suggested this idea (which I will elaborate more on in the BIP):
User-agent strings are a good starting point, however they aren't easy for parsing so we'll make a small modification to them.
We need a hierarchy from protocol, variant, gui, flavour, build
/Satoshi:314700/bitcoin-qt:0.4/
How does that sound? In BitcoinJ's case:
/BitcoinJ:0.2/AndroidBuild:0.8/
Thoughts:
- Do we need a freely defined comments field?
/BitcoinJ:0.2[iPad; U; CPU OS 3_2_1]/AndroidBuild:0.8/
/Satoshi:314700/bitcoin-qt:0.4[Ubuntu Oneiric]/

On BitDroid I stopped updating the protocol version at 31700 and set the string to be both Version and Client, just like BitcoinJ :-)

BitCoinJ already sets the subver field to its name and version.
