Java and Python routers don't get along. :-(

Hi, jrand0m! :)
	(You're message about posting to iip-dev specified that messages concerning 
code should be sent there as well. This one does. If I was overly literal in 
my interpretation [which I often am], then just tell me.) :)

	As you know, last night you instructed me how to get the Java router to make 
a file containing the binary data of a message. (You used 
CreateSessionMessage as an example.) Well, I tried that and made a nice 
binary file. Unfortunately, the Python router didn't use the same data format 
as the one the java router does. (In case you're wondering, I piped the java 
created binary message file into my router via netcat. You can be certain the 
data was transmitted accurately byte for byte.)
	I looked into the situation a little and found myself somewhat confused. For 
example, the Destination.java file appears to insert its items into the 
output stream _backwards_. (i.e. certificate, signing key, and public key 
instead of public key, signing key, and certificate like how the data 
structures spec describes.) I asked thecrypto about it, and he told me that 
you put data into an OutputStream in the exact order you want it to come out. 
So it would look like Destination.java is putting the data in backwards.
	Anyway, I reversed the order in Destination and tried again, but still got 
failures. At that point, I just threw together a Python file that generates 
binary message data files using the Python code I have.

	So it would appear we have a discrepancy. I've attached the binary message 
file for CreateSessionMessage I got from the Java router. We need to work 
this out.

P.S. I tried to contact you via IIP, so we could sit down and figure all this 
out, but the network appears to be down.
