Issue 4302: destroy failures (ots-structs-ftf) Source: University of Newcastle upon Tyne (Dr. Mark Little, m.c.little@ncl.ac.uk) Nature: Uncategorized Issue Severity: Summary: If the destroy call on an Action fails then this should have no affect on the activity. This is simply used as a hint that the activity has completed, but an Action may decide to purge itself early if it wants to (the effect on the activity will obviously depend upon where in its life this occurs). Resolution: Clarify text. Revised Text: Update text in the document that refers to destroy operations (e.g., for Action and ActivityToken) to state explicitly that any exception thrown by the method does not affect the outcome of the activity.

Just a quick note to report on the meeting we had at Danvers. We managed to work through all of the issues that were reported prior to Danvers, though some have come up since. A brief summary of the issues we discussed, and the resolutions follows (the individuals who will write up the final proposed resolutions are also indicated). Proposal for 4302: clarify as per text.
