RE: [DS5] Request with acknowledgement - revised

John,

Following the phone conference how about:

DS5	A sender wishes to reliably exchange data with a receiver. 
	It wishes to be notified either 1) that data has been 
	successfully delivered to the intended recipient, or 2)
	of any failure or possible failure to deliver the data.

Regards

Stuart
