2015-04-03 Thread Matthieu Brucher
If you don't need to know if the data was transferred or not, then why do you transfer it in the first place? The schema seems kind of strange, as you don't have any clue that the data was actually transferred. Actually without Wait and Test, you can pretty much assume you don't transfer anything.
