Messages
A message is a P2PP protocol message that performs a certain function. It begins with a header followed by a sequence of type-length-value (TLV) objects. It can be either a request or a response. The response header contains a response code (see codes). They cannot be combined in one message if an unreliable transport is used, due to limitations of UDP MTU.

Famous quotes containing the word messages:
“Acknowledging separation feelings directly and sympathetically is the best way of coping with them. It is actually helpful to tell a toddler “I’ll miss you,” or “I will think of you during the day,” or “It is hard to say goodbye,” or “I can’t wait to see you at the end of the day.” These messages tell the child that he is important to the parent even when they are not together and that out of sight need not mean out of mind.”
—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
“Pictures are for entertainment, messages should be delivered by Western Union.”
—Samuel Goldwyn (1882–1974)
“All the old supports going, gone, this man reaches out a hand to steady himself on a ledge of rough brick that is warm in the sun: his hand feeds him messages of solidity, but his mind messages of destruction, for this breathing substance, made of earth, will be a dance of atoms, he knows it, his intelligence tells him so: there will soon be war, he is in the middle of war, where he stands will be a waste, mounds of rubble, and this solid earthy substance will be a film of dust on ruins.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
