[Rserpool] Draft Agenda for the 50th IETF Rserpool WG meeting

[[e-mail]]

Please send comments on this draft agenda to the list.  I would like to send
this to the IETF agenda person sometime next week.  

By the way, the architecture team will not have a conference call next week.
The next conference call will be scheduled after the 50th IETF meeting.

Thanks.

Reliable Server Pooling Working Group Agenda (rserpool)

CHAIRS: Lyndon Ong <[e-mail]>
        Maureen Stillman <[e-mail]>

DESCRIPTION:

Reliable application service is critical to many different applications.
Examples include call control, mobility location registers, and e-commerce
websites.  Reliability can be implemented using an application server pool,
where multiple hosts support a single application with redundancy and/or
load sharing. 

Existing server pooling mechanisms are typically proprietary and designed
for specific applications.  As a result they cannot be extended to
heterogeneous environments and new applications.  

The Reliable Server Pooling effort focuses on standardizing a generalized
mechanism to provide a client with reliable service(s) provided by an
application server pool.  The objective is to cleanly separate the
application from the reliability mechanism and allow different types of
applications to use a common reliability framework and protocols.
