LC344#5: clarification needed

I agreed last week to take care of:

  2005-09-26: editors to look at sections 4.2 & 4.3 of part2 and see
  whether the first sentences (paragraphs) are no-ops. (LC344#5), due
  2005-10-06. 

This comes from the discussion of LC344 at the F2F[1].

  Amy: questions the first sentence of section 4.2 of part2 .. the
  last 2 words seem to make the sentence are totally useless.

Amy said:

  <alewis> I have a problem with the initial sentences/paragraphs of
  part two, sections 4.2 and 4.3 (IRI style and multipart style). Both
  say that the styles apply to any MEP with an initial message. This
  is *weird*. What is an MEP without an initial message? Is such a
  thing possible?

I agree, it would be hard to have an MEP without an initial MEP. The
only MEP which would have this property would be an MEP which does
not have any messages exchanged, which goes against the definition of
MEP.

I propose to drop the first sentence of 4.2 and 4.3 in Part 2.

Cheers,

Hugo
