 So the 256 character limit on Topic name lengths imposed by the [[ddsf:​public:​guidebook:​06_append:​05_vendors:​rti]] DDS implementation is not arbitrary. It is precisely what is required to be interoperable with other DDS implementations. So the 256 character limit on Topic name lengths imposed by the [[ddsf:​public:​guidebook:​06_append:​05_vendors:​rti]] DDS implementation is not arbitrary.
