So do I. I think more strongly than other people.
The problem arises if an implementation cannot implement discard
without generating a NDN.
Then it hasn't implemented discard; it has implemented reject. As far
as my reading of the draft goes, reject = discard + DSN and discard =
fileinto "/dev/null". The inability to implement discard without DSN
is a failure to implement properly.
Randy, maybe you can explain why your implementation can't implement
either reject - DSN or fileinto "/dev/null". I would like to prevent
DSNs with discards at all costs.
