Hi all,

I've just finished my razor job on LIS discovery.  I have implemented the changes discussed on list and at the meeting.

*** Please send comments ASAP ***

Major changes:

 - LIS authentication uses a certificate fingerprint.  The ol' fashioned domain name-based method can still be used, but you'd be nuts to do so when this new-fangled method is so easy.

 - Reverse DNS is gone.  We were getting nowhere on that issue.  However, we need to recognise that this leaves the solution incomplete.  I believe that incomplete is preferable to never completed.  We will have to solve this in another document.

 - I removed some of the deployment discussions - these are no longer so important.  In any case, these are better off being documented in a separate BCP.

I realise that there will be aspects of this document that don't meet expectations.  If this is the case, please send an email.

Personally, I'm just hoping that we can get this work completed a mere year late (c.f. charter).  People are depending on this work.

Cheers,
Martin
