They wouldn't have to try to determine what the difference is between the current cluster state and the cluster state at the event time. In the latest version of the spec, we don't send the cluster topology state along with the events anymore. Do you think that we should? > 3. > "Clients need to change behavior when the cluster is no longer able > to service operations: > (a) Kill themselves > (b) Resume ongoing operations locally by for example switching from > a clustered cache to hitting the > database directly > " > What would it take to an additional outcome of reconnecting to the > cluster a possibility upon cluster service operations resumption. > (with presumably state initialized to current L2 state). I'm sorry, I'm having trouble to compute this sentence. Would you mind rephrasing it or to give more context?
