RE: iSCSI: Negotiation clarifications still needed

What do we want to decide?

Bill, 

As I mention in the response to John, I would like to see proposed text for specifying the hand-off.

I think one could approach this by handing back and forth the right to make negotiation offers and leave to the implementations whether they send empty text negotiations or responses and declarations when they don't have the right to make negotiation offers. I think the hand-off should be based on a bit flag rather than based on whether the last PDU received ended in a complete key-value pair.

Once people have had a chance to see the proposal, I would like to hear opinions beyond those of the few people who have been active in this discussion.

Regards,
Pat
