In London we had a good discussion on patch operation (ticket #18) and Phil provided background information and walked the WG through a few options. In follow on discussions on the mailing list, survey Phil sent out, and the WG call we narrowed it down to two options.  Stay with the current patch semantics or change patch to a RFC6902-based model.

Phil has posted to the group the proposed text for 6902 “based” patch (and also documented in the tracker under issue #18).  The WG is making a consensus call as follows:

A. Do not change patch semantics and stay with what is currently documented in the spec
B. Adopt the 6902 based changes Phil has put together (as proposed on the list and documented in tracker)
C. Don’t care or need more information

Please provide your input before Apr. 18th.

Cheers,
Leif & Morteza
