Ram Jeyaraman commented on AMQP-63:
-----------------------------------

1) 

Suggest changing:

"Expectations of the capabilities of a "client library" are different from expectations of a "broker" which are themselves different from the capabilities from a "router"."

To:

"Expectations of the capabilities of a "client library" are different from expectations of a "broker" which are themselves different from the capabilities of a "router"."

2)

Is a conformant implementation required to implement at least Part 2 (AMQP over TCP) or AMQP mapping over any other protocol? In other words, is an implementation that implements only Parts 1, 3, 4, and 5 conformant?

Suggestion: Add a statement such as "A conformant implementation MUST support Part 2 or an AMQP mapping over some other protocol".

3)

Suggest changing:

"Where an implementation does not allow for a behavior the implementation MUST respond according to the rules defined within the document."

To:

"Where an implementation does not allow for a behavior the implementation MUST respond according to the rules defined within Part 2 of the specification."

4)

Suggest changing:

"Where a behavior is not admitted, the implementation MUST respond according to the rules defined within the document."

To:

"Where a behavior is not admitted, the implementation MUST respond according to the rules defined within this specification."

5)

Suggest changing:

"The rules defined in this part regarding the response to non-admitted behaviors MUST be followed."

To:

"Where a behavior is not admitted, the rules defined in part 4 regarding responses to non-admitted behaviors MUST be followed."

6)

Of the various parts in the specification, what are the parts that a conformant implementation must *minimally* implement?

> Comment from Public Review
> 5. 0.1 Conformance is weak. What constitutes an implementation? Is it node, a network? Assuming it's a node, Section 2 talks about nodes, sources and targets. Must all of these roles be implented and supported by a implementaion claiming to be an ampq node?, must containers be supported etc. Please clarify.
> What is the intended conformance target of the messaging layer i.e. who generates and recieves messages so that they should follow this specification. Is the sender and reciver different from a node? does an impl have to support both sending and reciving roles?
> Does part 4 have to be supported, or is this entirely optional?
> Similaryly does part 5 have to be supported by all impls.
