[wsrp-coord] Issue #20 Discussion - Is subscription just a boolean (i.e. allor none)?

[Rich Thompson <richt2@us.ibm.com>]

I think this discussion should start
with what are the available categories of choices and then narrow in on
the v2 solution. Here are the ones obvious to me:

1. No subscriptions. In this case the
Consumer will receive all events that a portlet generates even if the Consumer
is not one that distributes events.

2. Boolean subscriptions: In this case
the Consumer indicates whether or not it distributes events (possible refinement
... distributes only simple events) and the portlet/producer uses this
to filter the response message (i.e. potentially reduce network bandwidth
consumption)

3. Per event type subscription: In this
case the Consumer indicates exactly which events it desires to receive
(by QName) and the portlet/producer uses this list to filter whether or
not a generated event gets placed into the response message.

Any other useful categories of event
subscription people can think of?
