Colleagues,

During the ALTO meeting at IETF80 I made some comments at the microphone highlighting my concerns with the scope of draft-penno-alto-cdn-03 being far too wide and that we should first focus on documenting the use cases and requirements.

To that end I've been working with a couple of folks to co-author a draft focussed on documenting the use cases for ALTO & CDNs, the thinking being that a fresh draft with a tighter focus than draft-penno-alto-cdn-03 makes highlighting and discussing the use cases without slipping into possible solution mechanisms much simpler and cleaner.

We have just published a -00 version which is available here:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-jenkins-alto-cdn-use-cases-00
 
So far we have only included details on two use cases and included placeholders for another two because we wanted to socialise the work early to see if others were interested in contributing text for the use cases they have as well as to solicit early feedback on the structure and focus of the draft.

Comments/Suggestions/etc on the draft are welcomed.

Ben
