If this is for deeply dechnical conversations then i am not sure
how much it helps to come up with analogies into foodie land. Not
that i would mind, but its yet another terminology to remember.
Usually, we (technies) try to indulge into TLAification:
VR = Voucher
VRQ = Voucher Request
NS = No prior signed
PS = Pledge Signed
MS = Masa Signed
NS-VRQ, PS-VRQ, MS-VRQ ?
In any case: think of names whose abbriations can be used on labels
of ASCII art explaining the signaling flows ;-)
Think of n
