I hate to be a whiner, but if it isn't going to be obvious from the
documentation for HC 2.0, can somebody out there tell us what other
message sequences are going to change?  (I know that the startup sequence
change will probably break one stack I wrote).  Since some of these
weren't too well documented before, it would be good to know "once and
for all" what the sequences were before and will be when the magic
moment arrives.
