[Nsi-wg] Release command

[Radek Krzywania]

+1 for remove.
I was never convinced to usefulness of it, and we do not support it in
AutoBAHN.

Best regards
Radek

Subject: [Nsi-wg] Release command

Peoples,

I understand the usefulness of having a release command from a networking
perspective, but I know a number of implementations are not supporting it at
the moment (and some have no intention of supporting it).  With my new "lets
make the state machine as simple as possible attitude" I started to wonder
what is the customer use case for this command?  Chin had one where someone
wanted to keep their reservation, but wanted to free up bandwidth for others
to use.  This is an interesting use case, but not the behaviour of the
current command as documented.  Removal of this command can significantly
simplify the protocol and state machine.

Would it be possible for people to provide their customer use cases for this
command?  I am wondering if it is truly needed, or perhaps, we have the
incorrect behaviour defined.

Thank you,
John
