Hi

I used I-D since It's still work in progress. And yes, I also looked at pcapng and assumed I couldn't go wrong with 
following those guideline s. I've never written an RFC or I-D so using pcapng draft seemed like a good starting point.

I plan to document the SCTP part also and when it's all done, I would lilke to eventually get it published as an RFC. 

You can link it to the draft for now, and I will continue to update it. When the time comes and I'm satisfied will the 
final version, I will let you know. You know a lot about this RFC process than I do.

Thank You again for all the help

That would be great thanks. That's all I ever wanted really, but now
I understand the relevance of having a proper I-D.

It will also be useful for documenting the protocol when run over SCTP.

Are you planning on running the protocol through the IETF standards
process:

      https://www.ietf.org/standards/process/

or did you just use the I-D format for convenience (or because that's
how the pcapng spec is being done - we may submit it as an I-D at some
point)?

And yes, you are correct regarding the Header/PDU; quite simple.

Great - thanks!  So shall we link to that draft, for now?
