    RE: iSCSI Login Proposal



    Hi Julian,
    
    I was aware of the proposed change (I actually voted for it in London). I
    thought of staying with SecurityContextComplete for the time being as it is
    nearer the current spec.  I am happy to go either way. Personally I prefer
    the put the status in the text command/response (For the new proposal its
    not needed in the login command/response).  The login proposal has an
    additional state ("Pre-security state") which would need to be reflected in
    your proposal.
    
    Is there value is specifying a login state machine in the spec?  I am happy
    to do this (I have written one any way) but did not include it in the
    proposal for simplicity's sake.
    
    Cheers
    
    Matthew

    Matthew,
    
    Apologies to you, Marjorie and Bob for "changing the rules" during the
    game.
    
    I thought that it was obvious that I am going to rewrite 4 and simplify the
    rules by neatly staging the login phase through a binary type indicator
    that should show where the command is. Although I was myself not very
    thrilled by the idea (presented in London) the meeting ended with a
    consensus that I should explore this and that is what I did.
    
    The result is not bad (the stages a clearly delineated, there are fewer
    handshakes than before etc.).
    
    Regards,
    Julo
