Ah....  That's the 512 byte limit folks are talking about.  Ok.  Only hubs
with a LOT of downlinks or hubs with several downlinks and using full 2d or
3d node addressing in the echo area definitions would hit this.....   I
think I know two hubs that would hit this limit.  Both happen to be zone
level hubs.

Personally, I tend to agree with you.  We probably should still note this
some place, like in the TODO list....

Take care.....
