[Nsi-wg] minutes from today's NSI call

[John MacAuley]

After looking at the difference between the status query and the path query I realized it was really a reservation "summary" query and a reservation "details" query.  The only difference between the two being the "details" query returned the recursive detailed path and state information, otherwise, the information returned was identical.  The original "status' and "path" didn't really represent the true nature of the operations.

So I am proposing that there is a single query operation with the option for choosing reservation "summary" or "details".

John.

NSAs always shift roles if/when they need to work the service tree.  It does not matter what role they may have played in other primitives.   (Just as an NSA performs both RA and PA roles for reserve requests, likewise for the Query request.)
