A while ago, Daniel fixed a bug in my changes to olpc-update, and that
left me with a to-do item on the xs-activation side.
Reviewed the situation on the OAT proto concept of always sending a
stolen token, with the idea that xs-activation should do what the
protocol proposes: always send a 'stolen' element, to prevent a
relatively simple proxy from blocking stolen msgs.
The situation is a tad more complex, as a proxy could block any
message not containing a lease.
For the time being I've filed my notes in
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/9444 -- so this is a 'for later'.
cheers,
