+Phase data is exchanged by pushkey on pull and push. Some servers have a

+draft changeset to a publishing server changes the phase to public.
 
 A small list of fact/rules define the exchange of phase:
 
 * old client never changes server states
 * pull never changes server states
-* publish and old server csets are seen as public by client
+* publish and old server changesets are seen as public by client
+* any secret changeset seen in another repository is lowered to at least draft
