Now G2 Mike saw that the old 0.6 needs improvements and he isn´t sure the only one he said this... now he had two options to wait for the GDF (especially Vinnie and Limewire) or do it alone - the good point in a free world nobody have to follow him... and I see many other do it. So this protocol is an improvement... an improvent which needs several months (or years) in the GDF...
To make it short, everybody can write him own protocol, nobody needs to use it - every developer decides what he does...
