  question about QoS

  
I have 2 
  questions/comments about the recent talk regarding QualifyOfService and 
  DuplicationElimination.

  
 

  
1. It was said 
  that QoS with DuplicationElimination must be present in every message. Does 
  this include MSH types messages where DuplicationElimination would never be 
  true? i.e. ping/ping/StatusRequest/StatusResponse/Acknowledgements must also 
  include QoS with DuplicationElimination =false.

  
 

  
<ac>

  
The 
  QoS element with the duplicateElimination attribute set to "true" needs to be 
  included in the message header only if duplicate elimination is desired. It is 
  quite pointless to include a QoS element with duplicateElimination set to 
  "false".

  
</ac>

  
 

  
2. Since 
  QualifyOfService only contains one attribute (DuplicationElimination) why not 
  rename the "QualifyOfService" element to "DuplicationElimination"? This would 
  also mean that question #1 above wouldn't make sense. This element would only 
  appear when "DuplicationElimination" is true. This would be more in line with 
  other elements like "AckRequested" and "SyncReply". IMO leaving 
  QualifyOfService the way it is seems inconsistent with the rest of the 
  spec.

  
 

  
<ac>

  
I agree with you that it will be more 
  consistent if we rename the QoS element the DuplicateElimination element and 
  to do away with the embedded duplicateElimination attribute.

  
</ac>
