2.3.1 - ATTENTION CHRISTINE AND JOSH

[julia@us.ibm.com]

There were two alternatives to 2.3.1. Christine and Josh disagreed with alternative two - the one most others agreed with. I have Christine's comments on this one so I'm going to propose an alternative that I think will satisfy her disagreement. I don't know Josh's reasons. 

Here's Christine's comment: I think we should remove the "to allow" statements, and just say it should define changes to environment sufficient to identify whether the resource is already installed.

So, Christine and Josh, would this wording remove your objection:

2.3.1 The SDD specification must support definition of information that describes the results of solution deployment sufficient to determine if the deployment lifecycle operation is needed (if the current hosting environment already matches the desired results).

If anyone else objects to this new wording, please respond. Otherwise your agreement will be assumed.
