Title: Message

Carsten,

 

I think where the confusion might lie is that the latest spec proposal 
uses the approach that you outlined below: the portlet developer segregates its 
information in the shared session. The other approach I outlined in the document 
suggest that the portlet developer may want to use a completely separate session 
per occurrence of a portlet. None of the approaches is necessarily better (I 
outlined some of the pros/cons in the document). However, we need to ensure 
that as we continue developing the spec, it will allow the portlet developer to 
choose between those two options.

Mike - 
I agree with Eilon's conclusion 
  to not enforce a maybe limiting session 
sharing model 
  in WSRP. If we allow the consumer to group portlets to 
different sessions we have the best of the two worlds: if required 
  portlets 
can namespace data they do not want to share 
  even if there is a shared 
session. They either use a 
  constant prefix or their entiy ID for this. Both 
is 
  possible without any modifications of the interface proposed in the 
  
draft spec. Parameters they want to share are not prefixed at 
  all or with a 
prefix known to all participating 
  portlets.

Eilon, 
   Can you elaborate 
  on your conclusion that we shouldn't enforce a model? 
I am not really sure how we can have our cake and eat it too.  
  Either our 
model requires a key or its doesn't or its 
  a hybrid that allows both.  I 
would prefer not 
  doing that later as it seems messy in the interface (and 
complicates it).

            As 
  promised (though a bit late) here is a sketch of my current 
            
  understanding of the notion of sessions.

  attached file: Sessions.zip)
