Hi Jens,
Where did the network description go? We used to have one. [..]
I think we need to put it back, and StorageAccessProtocol seems to me the more obvious location.
We discussed it a few meetings ago and felt that it overly complicated the schema for the amount of gain in the short/medium term. For example, insecure RFIO and DCAP are published without restrictions, and in practice this is not a real problem today. Since we want to converge on 2.0 ASAP, we felt such enhancements were better considered for 2.1. Would that be OK for you?
So for those of you not in the telcon today, I learnt that the CESEBind aims to solve some of the same use cases, so we should aim to resolve CESEBind first (to be discussed in the telcon tomorrow at 12:00 UTC). And the idea was certainly not to introduce an overly complex solution, if it cannot be solved with a few attrs or at most one extra class then it's not worth doing. Maybe the CESEBind is this class.
