RE: [wsrp-interfaces] Groups - Import_Export2.html uploaded
What is the use case for allowing the Producer to merely export a 
reference to a snapshot of the customization data?

Once one allows 
  for a Producer merely exporting a reference to a snapshot of the customization 
  data, then one must also account for how does a Producer know when it can 
  throw away that snapshot. Andre is reminding us that there does need to be a 
  way for the Consumer to provide that notification to the exporting Producer in 
  a verifiable manner.

Could you explain a little more? I don't 
  understand what you mean when you say the "data a Producer is holding onto 
  that it did not ship on "export" in expectation of (further) imports". And 
  which Producer is the Consumer signaling this to? The "export" Producer or the 
  "import" Producer?

One issue we did not get around to discussing is the need for 
  a 3rd operation to allow the consumer to signal that no more "imports" will be 
  attempted from the results of an "export". This would allow the producer to 
  garbage collect any data it did not ship on "export" and may still be holding 
  in the expectation of (further) imports.
