Based on internal discussions we would like to make a small change to

This is fine with me.  

One suggestion:  Add a note that the old PGP sync mode is not used with
the wew packet 18.  

Did I miss something?  The description of the new type 18 packet
indicates a prefix that looks like the PGP-sync prefix used elsewhere.

But I didn't see the resync operation that is done everywhere else (I
didn't read that carefully).

So if I understand correctly, we are going to use the prefix but NOT
going to do the resync?
