DS23/24 - application semantics?

I suggest that subscription/notification is an application semantic, and
therefore falls under section 2.4 of the charter (which doesn't rule out
us considering them completely, but at least places the issue in
context).

I also believe the topic of DS24, caching, is an application semantic.

It is my recommendation that we not consider these, except as they
relate to R803; not precluding lower layer protocols from supporting
them.
