• Propose this requirement with title  'Whenever multiple protocols are possible, Services SHOULD implement as many as possible'

Etienne Urbah's position on 2010-04-01

• There are much more suppliers and active versions of Grid Clients than suppliers and active versions of Grid Services
• Therefore, implementation and validation of Grid Clients should be made easy, even if this means harder work for suppliers of Grid Services
• In particular, Grid Services should implement as many protocols as possible, in order that any Grid Client implementing only one protocol can access as many Grid Services as possible
• So I vote FOR this requirement

Morris, Balazs and Etienne on 2010-04-27

• dropped, because of too general

Etienne Urbah's position on 2010-04-28

• Re-propose this requirement with following more precise title  'Whenever multiple protocols are possible, Services SHOULD implement at least the 2 most used protocols'
• Change the requirement status from 'Rejected (NOT precise enough)' to 'Re-proposed'
