David,

I will happily do that. But before I can, I need to go back to the
discussion on architecture in syslog-protocol. Is this issue solved? Do
we need a new section or are the proposed definition updates enough?

I am asking these questions because I think we need to be clear on the
terminology before we check its usage in another document.
