Re: [wsrp] service & portlet descriptor changes, how does a consumer know?

I think it is really important that
we be extremely careful about additional functionality at this point is
producing v1. I prefer restricting ourselves to editorial changes and fixes
dealing with things that are demonstrated to be broken.

How does a consumer detect that the descriptor of a service or a 
portlet has changed?

As the spec is today, it seems that consumer should keep a copy and do
a comparison with the producer descriptor to find out.

Wouldn't make the life of consumers easier if we have a sequence number
in the descriptor? This would allow consumers to check and quickly 
decide if it has to update things.
