[Surya] Yes, message format should be used and that is the correct way 
to handle this situation.

[Surya] Yes, it is preferred to preserve the message format 
version(variable i_msg_fmt_ver) all the way to event handler.

[Surya] I think i had already explained in my earlier emails, but here 
goes the explanation.

  MDS Service subpart version is the version of a service with which it 
has installed with MDS.
Message format version is the version with which a message was encoded. 
Such that on the receiving end,
application uses this message format version and decodes the message 
accordingly.

[Surya] Yes you are correct.

[Surya] Actually there were some limitations with the number of bits 
that were available in the TIPC namesequence bind.
So it was limited it to 8 bits for the SVC install.
