Beak: is Not
Seeing no contrary views, I think the consensus is that LAST is required to be persistent. As I read it, modulo some wording nits, this is not a change from RFC 1460 et al.--popper is simply non-conforming in this respect. If that's the consensus, our options are one or more of the following: a) Make LAST optional. This may cause problems with existing clients. b) Add a warning that some servers are non-conforming in this respect. c) Create a new command that is a synonym for LAST and say we really, really mean it this time. -- _.John G.
