Hi Please find attached the proposal for retrying a transfer in case of a failure. I made two separate documents for the two proposals I had. I am still working on the Transfer aggregation proposal.

Only one thought on reading it... do we need a parameter to control a back-off time between retries? After a failure wait X seconds before retrying? Should the interval increase (i.e. double) with each attempt. Just a suggestion... otherwise it looks good.

The current proposal looks fine. On the back-off time, I am inclined to make this an implementation detail, i.e. we may mention it in the text but otherwise do not standardise on it. People may consider passing it in as an extension, if we allow for that in the TrensferRequirements element. Cheers, Michel On 18 Dec 2007, at 19:57, Ravi Madduri wrote:
