Look Sam, If you feel that this is the best way for move occi forward, go for it. I'm iust trying to preserve the integrity of the work and support it properly in this group. I will be rolling out an occi interface or occi like interface publicly by Q1'10. I will not be deploying this proposed protocol until it is proven to work in a global environment. If that means abandoning occi, well, I'll abandon occi. I personally, feel I cannot and will not risk a customer's business or the livelihood of partners and their families on a single opinion and unproven technology. When you get real numbers from a global time study, I'll be glad to review them and support your efforts. Enjoy your night off. cheers gary Sam Johnston wrote:
Gary,
And here I was thinking I was getting the night off...
I am advocating this is not the only interface.
It's not the only interface - there's currently this one for machines and XHTML5 for users (and masochistic machines who like to parse XML). However it is the only interface users would have to implement (rather than having to code XML, JSON *and* text, which was the case before).
Anyway I see Adrian has kindly stepped up to discuss the details with you so I can get back to writing PyUnit unit tests.
