<as individual>I'm still in the process of reviewing this version, but I want to point out one particular change that went in as a result of the previous WGLC feedback:
Both versions rely on "message/cpim" metatdata for certain MSRP message routing and authorization decisions. The previous version overlooked the possibility of a large message being sent as a series of chunks. Chunking occurs after MIME encoding. When a message/cpim document gets chunked, the metadata will only be present in the first chunk. Revision 4 assumed that each MSRP send request would include the metatdata.
Revision 5 deals with this by requiring the MSRP switch to be message stateful. It has to remember the message/cpim metadata until it processes all chunks of a given message. This metadata "state" is indexed by the MSRP Message-ID header field., which is the same for all chunks of a given message.
IMO, this is the best approach of any that I have heard of so far. It is unfortunate that we need to keep message state, but I don't see an alternative short of forbidding chunking of messages to an MSRP switch.
What do other people think about this? Thanks! Ben. On Oct 9, 2009, at 3:39 AM, Geir Arne Sandbakken wrote:
