A document describing the channel access protocol has been
on the to-do list forever. As we are currently trying to
put channel access in position to change the protocol, we
have put it off even longer. The fact that we only have
one person working on this - along with all problem
reports, changes, bug fixes - the next version etc....,
does not help. Jeff Hill has been author and stewart of
this code from its inception. We have tried to get others
involved. We have recently had some support from Ralph
Lange on this effort to make a significant change in our
communication abilities. To add resrouces requires a real
commitment from the supporting institution that is
typically hard to get. It seems that this is not one of
the things that has been important enough for anyone to
want to support.
At some point, a team of dedicated developers is going to
be required to make the sort of "product" enhancements
that would benefit the community in the long run. It is
difficult to ask projects to dip into their funding to
support the toolset in ways that are not dictated by the
funding laboratory.

Hi Noboru,
I'm not sure if the information exists anywhere else
but in the source code and with Jeff Hill. I don't recall
That is what I thought at first place.
(over ten years) seeing a document that describes
the internals of the protocol - unless Jeff alluded
to it in some collaboration meeting.
Is there any interest on such a document? Or a soruce
code may be enough.
