Agreed, but it might make senses to instead state something like "The protocol SHOULD NOT be responsible for preventing unauthorized redistribution of ALTO information by ALTO Clients." I would think its possible for a provider to have some legal agreements covering redistribution of the ALTO information, but it would be outside of the scope of the protocol. -- Richard Alimi Department of Computer Science Yale University _______________________________________________ alto mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/alto
