[infod-wg] Issue 7 - How are registry object updates broadcasted to interested infod player

[Dieter Gawlick]

These are the interactions between the INFOD registry and the INFOD objects:

    * The objects request modifications through the
      create/alter/dropINFODResource interface In response to such a
      request the INFOD registry will identify with publishers are
      publishing or are able to publish the requested information and
      limit the selection using any criteria that is part of the
      publisher and consumer specification.
    * If the INFOD registry is unable to verify the expression related
      to the data it will request verification by at least one publisher
      using a web services interface.
    * If requested the subscriber will be notified - using the
      consumption interface - to select publishers and subscribers of
      interest.
    * If requested the publisher will be notified - using the
      consumption interface - about the changes: new/changed/dropped
      subscriptions and new/changed/dropped subscribers.

Note:

    * If the publisher (or subscriber) has not implemented the
      consumption interface the information will be made available using
      the POBOX. That is associated to an INFOD registry.
