+Thanks for getting this started.
+
+With regards to the specific proposal, I don't believe it's the best option
+and still plan to eventually implement the original design outlined more
+than a year ago in this thread:
+
+ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=7972.msg116285#msg116285
+
+Namely that you use a new protocol command to set a Bloom filter on a
+connection. Only transactions matching that filter will appear in relayed
+inventory. Blocks that are requested will arrive as a header plus
+transaction/merkle branch pairs. Clients are expected to maintain and track
+the block chain as per usual, but instead of downloading the whole chain
+and then dropping the irrelevant transactions, that filtering is done
+server side. By strengthening or weakening the Bloom filters you can choose
+your preferred point on the privacy/bandwidth-usage spectrum. It is a
+fairly simple change to the Satoshi and BitcoinJ codebases but still allows
+clients to gain confidence in their balance by examining the chain, and
+this is true even in the presence of a hijacked internet connection (you
+can't trust pending transactions that way, but you can still trust
+confirmed transactions).
+
+The filters would be applied to each data block in each script rather than
+having a specific knowledge of addresses. In this way you can select for
+things like multisig outputs or outputs which don't use addresses / pubkeys
+to authenticate.
+
+I could write a BIP for this alternative protocol if somebody else wants to
+implement it. I was going to wait until I had time to do both BIP and
+implementation, but I think some simple optimizations to BitcoinJ can keep
+its performance good enough for the short term.
