🗒️ Summary of this message: The proposed BIP 14 protocol version and user agent format is reasonable, pending changes to the mainline client and API work. Version 0.6 should be the last protocol version bump for a while.
📝 Original message:Nice. I'll check with justmoon when I hopefully meet him at the conference. If all is OK, hopefully 0.6 will be the last protocol version bump for a while.

Subject: Re: [Bitcoin-development] [RFC] BIP 14 - Protocol Version and User Agent


Looks pretty reasonable to me. If Gavin changes the mainline client to use this format I'll change BitcoinJ as well. It'll need a bit of API work so clients are sure to set it up properly.
