Hi, I'm ok about the proposed change below - just one point of clarification - only query that I have is the canonical time for this is the server time in the timezone the server lives in - right? I have a vague recollection that we did discuss this ...
For the group: I think we need to slightly reword the Functional Specification better describing the StartNotBefore transfer requirement.
It currently reads as: "This represents the [startNotBefore] information element. The data transfer encapsulated by the DTI MUST NOT start before the date, time and time zone specified by this element. If not specified its default value will be the date and time that the DTI was created. The DTI MUST NOT enter the transferring state before this time unless the “Start” operation on the DTI is invoked."
I propose to replace that with the following paragraph: "This represents the [start not before] information element. The data transfer encapsulated by the DTI MUST NOT start before the date, time and time zone specified by this element. If not specified then the DTI MUST wait for a client to invoke the Start operation before it can enter the Scheduled state."
