RE: iscsi : Data ACKs already been included into draft (?)

["Julian Satran" <Julian_Satran@il.ibm.com>]

David,

I did not raise the issue at all - it was raised by some candid souls that
are as concerned as I am about the target resources and that belong to the
same organization that the most vocal opponent of data-ack belongs to; that
lead me to the wrong assumption that he might have "seen the light".  As
such I've made 2 changes:

   a minor change in format (SNACK has a type field and not a single bit);
   that is good for extensions and will stay
   the addition of data ack (that is clearly distinguishable text) that
   might go if the list wants so

Julian,

Given that you've described the 07-9x versions of the draft on
your web site as near-final versions of the -08 draft to be
submitted, I think it's fair to expect that they represent
the rough consensus of the WG and not contain speculative
additions.  In other words - Santosh is right, that text
should not be in 07-97 and needs to be removed or moved to
a version that's clearly marked as not being on the main
course of editing to produce the -08 version.
Thanks,
--David
