For Server capabilities, I came up with 3 or 4 capability types and how
to encode those in terms of both store/allowAsync parameters and just
the store parameter:
1) The server has full store/delay functionality
a) store= {true|false}; allowAsync={true|false}
[NOTE having dropped PUSH, does "store=F, allowAsync=T" make
sense? And how do we handle that?]
b) store={true|false|serverdecide}
Dominic felt "false" and "serverdecide" didn't make sense
together (or was it just those two with out "true"). I think
this combination actually captures the "allowAsync" parameter
very well. "false" doesn't allow async, "serverdecide" does
allow async.
Yes, just to clarify I meant false and serverdecide together didn't make
sense.
i.e as a server you can't say "I don't support storage" and then say "I'm
going to decide whether to or not to store the data".
Still reading the rest of your email... :)
