On TD26 - Fast TCS and M/S negotiation in H.323v4

Jane,

I suspect that TD-26 has the procedural issues addressed-- it will just be a
matter of specifying the usage of a different field.

I'll have to review what is written there, but the most obvious way to
prevent race conditions is to specify that channels may not be opened via
H.245 until Fast Connect is accepted, explicitly refused, or implicitly
refused by not receiving a fastStart element up to and including CONNECT.
