    Unsolicited Data.



    I'm not sure if this has been discussed before but it is causing some
    confusion.  The statement below implies that if immediate data has been
    negotiated then the initiator MAY use it.
    
    "If ImmediateData is set to no and InitialR2T is set to no then the
    initiator MUST NOT send unsolicited immediate data but MAY send one
    unsolicited burst of Data-OUT PDUs."
    
    Therefore the target must wait for the initial burst of unsolicited data
    before issuing the first R2T (if there is subsequent data).  If the
    initiator decides not to send it then the target must timeout and issue the
    R2T for the initial data.  Can the spec be changed to state that if
    unsolicited data has been negotiated, then the initiator MUST use it.
    
    Thanks
