For a requirement draft, we can just use the words - "MUST", "SHOULD", "MAY" etc to differentiate which are necessary (for basic inter-op) and which are preferred."


I think the options are to either:

- explicitly define simple versus smart trackers (as Arno suggested)

or

- think about dropping the "smart" terminology in the one place it
occurs (this may be what you're suggesting, with properties for smart
trackers as SHOULDs, but I wasn't sure that was exactly what you meant
or not)

[ZN]: I mean dropping the "smart" term and using the SHOULDs.
I am not in favor of defining smart tracker by ourselves in requirement spec, as I haven't seen clear demarcation of simple tracker and smart tracker in industry (on the contrary, we do see clear role of peer and tracker in existing P2P applications). Please correct me, if anybody does see clear definition of smart tracker. Thanks.

Ning Zong
