CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_
Reported by Scott Kaplan/FTP
Minutes of the Service Location Protocol Working Group (SVRLOC)
The Service Location Working Group met twice to conduct a technical
review of the current Internet-Draft. We got a little over half way
through the document.
The first session focused on the basic network interactions between the
user agent and the servers (resource agent/binding broker). The main
issues we discussed were how servers should timeout information that
they cache and backoff strategies for resending broadcast queries.
There was little disagreement. The Group consensus will appear in the
next version of the draft.
There was also a discussion about whether or not a client could ever
converge on receiving database updates if a resource agent rapidly
changed its database. Scott Kaplan agreed to review this issue and
offer a solution in the next draft.
The second session focused on the packet structure. There were minor
editorial changes which will appear in the next draft.
The second session concluded with a presentation from John Veizades
about internationalization. A discussion regarding internationalization
issues followed.
