Hi all,

Just a (probably) very silly question: 

Isn't it way too early to get a discussion about ALTO server discovery started? 
And also (as Lisa pointed out) there are already many mechanisms to discover 
hosts, server, and services. 

I see more the need to spend cycles on ALTO problem space, reqs, basically 
where do we go with that?!

Just my two cents
