Re: [bt-spec] BTP Issue 52 : Forms of PREPARE

I completely agree with Mark on this. This message, PREPARE_INFERIORS, just blows up atomicity of atoms. The so-called "open top atom coordinator" concept only applies if Cohesion is a Decider.

Agreed. We keep talking about how we have two distinct types of "transaction" so lets keep them distinct. I don't want to confuse the issues with things like behaviour and confuse the model. "Just because something can be done doesn't mean it should be done".
