Re: [STDS-P1619] SISWG E-MOTION 2008-03: P1619.3 PROTOCOL QUESTION BALLOT

"Shall P1619.3 require one mandatory messaging protocol and zero or more optional messaging protocols to insure interoperability between key management clients and key management servers?"

Comments: Wave is unclear about the scope and wording of this motion. In particular, the meaning of "zero or more" could result in the IEEE1619.3 Task Group working on too many optional protocols or the Task Group not agreeing on *which* several protocols to be included as optional. Additionally, the text is not specific enough regarding whether the Server-to-Server messaging protocol must be the same as the Server-to-Client messaging protocol. Sigh..."
