Comment(by cjb):

 Replying to [comment:27 Quozl]:
 > It does not seem to be practical to packet filter in the Chat instance
 ... there might be other Chat groups on the local network, so we'd have to
 filter by stateful inspection of the group identifier in the XML.  Then
 there's all those other activities.

 No, my understanding is that each activity instance uses (or should use) a
 different multicast group.  We would packet filter by telling the 8686
 which multicast groups we are members of, which would be equivalent to
 giving it a list of the activities we are currently members of.  No data
 inspection needed.

 > Can we decide that what we have now is adequate?

 I'd put it in terms of "we need to implement multicast group wakeups using
 the 8686, but it's not necessary to do before production starts".  What we
 have now is acceptable for now, even though it isn't the designed
 behavior.
