[DNA] Merger: Unmodified Messages/Modified Messages (3)

[Greg Daley <Greg.Daley@eng.monash.edu.au>]

Hi,

Here's another proposal for merging the documents.
Essentially, this takes CPL and HOSTS and puts
them together (COMBO3A), while putting the other documents
which modify message formats together PROTO and Tentative
(COMBO3B).

As an aside, there's clearly a lot of overlap between Hosts
and CPL, which can be reduced.
