Once this is done individual messages do not need to carry this
information:
it is fixed information that is available to all parties of the CPP as

cached and the version to be queried only to establish that no changes
occured since last trnasmission.

The kinda mechanisms you detail are obviously of interest in this 
regard.

Thanks, DW.
