🗒️ Conversation Summary: The Bitcoin community is discussing solutions to the problem of 1 byte message type IDs lacking a coordination mechanism when multiple in-flight BIPs are proposing new message types. One solution is to use uniform encoding, while another is to make type IDs negotiable per direction per connection. A proposal to simplify the implementation of short IDs in Bitcoin has been suggested. Changes to short 1-byte message type IDs are in a PR for the Bitcoin Improvement Proposals repository.
