No, actually. I'm still saying unique-within-resource. (My only caveat is that it's kind of vague to me what this cluster example is all about, so I've interpreted it to support what I'm saying. :-) If there are multiple hands in the cookie jar for the same resource, they just need a private agreement that will keep them from reaching for the same cookie. -- bill@carpenter.ORG (WJCarpenter) PGP bill@bubblegum.net 0x91865119 38 95 1B 69 C9 C6 3D 25 73 46 32 04 69 D6 ED F3
