[ih] INWG #96



Interesting observation: "End-to-end protocols (often called 
"Host-Host"   protocols) are installed on top of the packet switching 
service to provide users with an interprocess communication facility."

No mention of INWG 39. They have well-known ports, concatenate ports 
with network addresses, and have user IDs. Network address is 32 bits, 
user ID plus port is another 16 bits. Sliding window, fragmentation, two 
modes that look a lot like UDP and TCP. Packets were small in those days.
