Re: [Taps] Opsdir last call review of draft-ietf-taps-minset-10

Michael, 

All the Applications I know are developed with specific requirement of the needed Transport Services. 

The App developers have to find the platforms (Guest OS) that support the needed Transport Services before the Apps can be instantiated on the platforms. 

I think the proposed method in your draft would be useful for Cloud Environment where Apps need to be instantiated on 3rd party environment with unknown capabilities. For example the App Orchestration system may need to inquire the minimum Transport Services before instantiating the Apps in the environment, or has to search for the right environment to instantiate the Apps. 

Therefore, I think the draft need a section on "Who" is requesting the "Transport Services". I don't think it is between Apps and the Guest OS, unless you can show some sample Apps that actually behave differently based on the Transport Services provided.  
I think it is more likely that the Apps Orchestration System needs to request the supported "Transport Services" to determine if the Apps can be running in the environment.

Dear Linda,

Thanks for your feedback!
I’d like to address your last comment, but I’m not sure how. I agree with what you say, but it sounds as if you felt provoked by a specific sentence or paragraph - could you please point me at the text that you think needs changing?

Thanks!

Cheers,
Michael
