[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: iSCSI: Range SeperatorI 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 -----Original Message----- From: owner-ips@ece.cmu.edu [mailto:owner-ips@ece.cmu.edu]On Behalf Of LEMAY,KEVIN (A-Roseville,ex1) Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 4:20 PM To: 'Julian Satran' Cc: ips@ece.cmu.edu Subject: RE: Range Seperator 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.

(- 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!

I don't care what it is, any character will do, but having only one there is slightly easier to parse that having two. - Rod -----Original Message----- From: owner-ips@ece.cmu.edu [mailto:owner-ips@ece.cmu.edu]On Behalf Of Julian Satran Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 5:05 PM To: ips@ece.cmu.edu Subject: 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? Julo
