Re: Issue 6432: updated proposal

Li and Doug (and others, of course)
Is there a set of requirements for an acceptable queueing mechanism?
Is it that there are queuing behavior issues that are distinct from  
the non-addressable client requirement issues?
What sort of behavior is required?
Does MC meet those requirements or not?
thanks
