I have to say, I agree with Luke here, this was Finalized a long time
ago. The version that was agreed on can be seen at
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/BIP_0021
Also see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6205.0 and Luke's three
biased polls at
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6206.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6207.0
