Hi Folks,
             I was reading the zookeeper recipes documentation 
(http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.4.3/recipes.html#sc_leaderElection<http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.4.3/recipes.html>).
Step 3 of  the ELECTION procedure suggests "where j is the smallest sequence 
number …" shouldn't this be changed largest as the former will lead to herd 
effect ?

A quick check on mailing list archives suggest this thread - 
http://zookeeper-user.578899.n2.nabble.com/leader-election-td6086870.html
 where same question has been asked and people seem to agree with the 
suggestion but the documentation error still propagates.

Thanks
-@nkur
