In the docs (54.7. Message Formats) NegotiateProtocolVersion message's
third field is described as below:

"Newest minor protocol version supported by the server for the major
protocol version requested by the client. "

From the description initially I thought the field value is minor
protocol version (e.g. 0, 2). However I realized that it's actually
protocol major version plus protocol minor version, like
StartupMessage. Probably my misunderstanding is due to my limited
English ability, but I just want to make sure that the current
description definitely matches what the field actually represents.

Best regards,
