-------------------------------
No progress for months, not planned for 0.23. Removing target version.
> Add comments that explain framework, executor ID, and task life cycle in slave

> Key: MESOS-2068
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2068
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: slave
> Reporter: Bernd Mathiske

> Priority: Minor

> Fixing MESOS-947 was relatively difficult because the source code is mostly
> the only source of information with regard to the life cycle of frameworks,
> executors, and tasks in the slave. In particular this leads to confusion
> about whether there could be a task lost state at the beginning of
> _runTask() when the framework is NULL. This shall be explained to the best of
> the assignees knowledge.
> For context see https://reviews.apache.org/r/27567
