Subject: initCookie
I've a few questions on the reason behind the initCookie operation and the way it is specified. Per the spec, this operation is supposed to let the consumer *assist* the producer in establishing certain cookies that the producer *may* require for managing a load-balancing environment. However this reasoning is somewhat vague. In particular it does not explain why WSRP has this special requirement when most HTTP-based apps don't require such a process. In a sesne WSRP is going beyond HTTP and Cookie RFCs in requiring an extra operation to initialize a producer's environment. More importantly, the spec does not explain what prevents a producer from establishing the same cookies upon the *first request* from the consumer in a transperant fashion, and why it needs consumer's help. I'm looking for a clarification on this operation. Regards, Subbu
