    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/1de244a629b9f0ff337e4a67
    Added Files:
    src/tith/standards/TTS-0002.txt
    Log Message:
    Document the TLV encoding

    Do it the FTSC way without using technical terms or jargon as much
    as possible, so it's a lot harder to understand.

    Change SHOULD to 63 bit values.

    63 bits is a multiple of seven and fits in either a signed or

    Add an initial bundle specification

    Currently, a bundle only contains files. This is sufficient to
    develop a working mailer for a Binkley style outbound, which only
    transfers files.

    A type has been reserved to hold a Message, which will seamlessly
    allow moving away from Type 2x packets... but that type won't be
    defined until the tosser/packer is developed.

    Remove encryption references

    We don't need encryption for any of this, and it's better to only
    have public/private signing keys rather than use the same keys for
    multiple things.
