Julian, any book you open on computer architecture,
assumes that bit 7 is more significant than bit 6,
simply because 2^7 > 2^6.

Stipulating that bit 7 is less significant than
bit 6, needs explicitly to be said so, NOT
inferred from ``figures in the text''.

Nevertheless, as you may have already noticed,
the algorithm which I sent you, is _independent_
of iSCSI's implication that bit 7 is less significant
than bit 6.

So, anywhich way you order the bits in the bytes
for the rest of the draft, the algoritm would
produce the same results, simply because
it explicitly mentions ordering in step 1 (and 2).
