    RE: iSCSI: Range Seperator



    
    	I don't care what the character is since the focus is to make this
    easy to parse, and not human readable. So to that end consider my vote
    to be for whichever of the single characters is nearest to winning.
    ;-)
    
    	However, if we do have to pay some mind to aesthetics then how about
    the < character? So we would have MyKey=3<65,93<123
    
    	- Rod

    I do not like the ';' but I would prefer a single character. There
    have been
    objections to using the comma or colon, then my third choice is the
    ".."
    
    I really don't see any conflict using either the comma or colon.
    
    Using comma is already used to separate list values. Colon being used
    in
    addresses is irrelevant because those are different parameters. I
    certainly
    keep track of which one we are working on.

    I was looking at what would be appropriate (and perhaps familiar to
    programmers - double dot is used in Pascal for ranges).  (- or +) may
    come
    handy later for other things. And BTW double characters are already
    there in
    addresses.
    We could use semicolon(;) (I for some reason do not like it).
    
    So we have 2 proposals:
    
    1) .. (2 votes)
    2); (1 vote?)
    
    The tally is on! (untill tomorrow)

                    I would prefer one character. I don't care what it is,
    any
    character
    will do, but having only one there is slightly easier to parse that
    having two.

    Dear colleagues,
    
    I suggested using : (colon) to separate values in a range.
    Unfortunately :
    is overused (in addresses and in names).
    I suggest we use the (old) two dots (..) to mark a range.
    
    Comments?
