Changes for version 01 of the draft:

o  Simplified the definition of a routable neighbor so that
   a Full neighbor is not treated as a special case.

o  Modified the definition of a "backbone neighbor" slightly
   to ensure correct interoperation between routers that use
   adjacency reduction and routers that do not.
   (Such interoperation was never intended until recently.)

o  Changed the default value of AckInterval to 1 sec, and added a
   recommendation for the amount of time Acks should be delayed.

o  Added an appendix with simulation results.
 
o  Editorial changes.
