Here we discuss how we will go about publishing changes to addressesAfter the long discussion below, the final form of the address change message is here.
Below we (Paul and Val) discuss the form of the address change messages.
Q1
From DBI's perspective, we are either going to be inserting addresses or updating addresses with your data. (Addresses are never deleted but retired on our end and yours I believe). How will we tell the difference if it is an address update or a brand new address? via an XML tag?

Q8
Val,
As of july 28 2010, the EAS will publish address changes like this.
I originally agreed to this because this is easier for AVS consumer.
I'd like to discuss doing it this way.
Here's why. Say that during the xmit the power goes out.
When we come back up, the daemon will retransmit some or all of the messages.
This is because of the transaction scope, which in EAS is naturally at the unit address level.
I'd like to avoid sending out duplicates if at all possible.
Now, if necessary, I can add some extra code (and a table) to handle this completely on my end.
But I'd like to get your feedback.
