This also explicitly states that repeating values are disallowed. It also expands the terse description of the access algorithm into more prose-like, active voice description, which trades conciseness for ease of comprehension. Added: mbus codes must not repeat Added: no holes in the enumeration Added: enumerations per what? Added: who fills in what in calls Changed: "zero" -> "0" Changed: "given" -> "specified" Still unclear how it works so didn't describe: "which". What is a "try format" vs "active format"? Signed-off-by: Dorota Czaplejewicz --- Hi, I took those patches out of the freezer. I made sure they still apply (they do), and corrected some errors pointed out by Jacopo in the previous round of reviews.
