#121: log metadata dissemination
Comment (by [email protected]): I agree that log metadata dissemination is a topic that should be more thoroughly discussed at some point. However, I do not think that 6962-bis is the right place for it. Steve has a very valid point about metadata not being specified in a machine-readable format, nor having a part of the protocol describing how it is disseminated. I believe these issues should be addressed separately of 6962-bis, because: - The topic of log metadata is one level "above" what 6962-bis discusses. - The requirements for metadata dissemination are very different for each type of client. - Disseminating metadata reliably is a protocol in itself, which (once the requirements are clear) deserve its own design. My suggestion is to punt the discussion until after 6962-bis is out. Presumably then there would be enough different clients implementing 6962-bis that disseminating metadata would justify more efforts from this workgroup. -- -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: draft-ietf-trans- [email protected] | [email protected] Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: rfc6962-bis | Version: Severity: - | Resolution: Keywords: | -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Ticket URL: <https://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/trans/trac/ticket/121#comment:2> trans <https://tools.ietf.org/trans/> _______________________________________________ Trans mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/trans
