Agreed.  In addition, many protocol "proposals" are available in the 
proposals sub-dir of the protocols tree and some (like dialback) are in 
active use and, in fact, _must_ be used by compliant servers.  These will 
need to be promoted to full protocols.  Unfortunately there doesn't seem to 
be a way to make this proceed smoothly.

I'm assuming this conversation is moving to docs-dev as much of this 
overlaps threads going on there.
