Re: iSCSI-countdown to new version

Folks,

Lest this get us all confused, the "Alias" section referred to by Julian is
NOT the Initiator Alias and Target Alias strings debated before (about
whether we need these in the protocol).  This new section deals with SCSI
alias designations for use third party SCSI operations.  As Julian
mentioned, the mechanism for using them are defined in SPC-3, but the
specific formats for embedding the alias designations in SCSI parameter
data is supposed to go in the protocol document (hence, it's in the new
draft).

Dear colleagues,,

I have posted 07-90.txt and 07-90.pdf on my site
(http://www.haifa.il.ibm/satran/ips).
The pdf file has "bar-marked" the changes (in addition to the change log).

The pdf file is produced with Acrobat 5.0

The files are a accumulative versions of the changes I've posted earlier
plus editorials.
It has also an Alias appendix.

Aliases (that where here up to very early version) are now handled by T10
in the SCSI documents but the
protocol documents are required to carry their specific formats.
