I've been following the Unified Agent mailing list thread for awhile now and, as someone who has written a fair amount of code for both of the two existing Trove agents, thought I should give my opinion about it. I like the idea of a unified agent, but believe that forcing Trove to adopt this

Please provide proof of that assumption or at least a general hypothesis that we can test. I can't prove that the new agent will be larger as it doesn't exist yet. Since nothing was agreed upon anyway, I don't know how you came to that conclusion. I would suggest that any agent framework

I agree that enabling communication between guest and cloud service is a common problem for most agent designs. The only exception is agent based on hypervisor provided transport. But as far as I understand many people are interested in network-based agent, so indeed we can start a thread

I second Rob and Greg- we need to not allow the instance table to have nulls for the datastore version ID. I can't imagine that as Trove grows and evolves, that edge case is something we'll always remember to code and test for, so let's cauterize things now by no longer allowing it at all. The
