Hi All,

  (As an individual) The Streaming Video Alliance has been evaluating CDNI for use by their Open Caching WG.  As part of that effort, they found an inconsistency between the Triggers PatternMatch object and the Metadata PatternMatch object.  Many thanks to Ori for both reviewing the documents and bringing this to our attention.

  Background: in response to the appsdir review of Metadata, we changed the PatternMatch escape character from "\" to "$", so as not to collide with the JSON "\" escape character [https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/cdni/0lG6zh8mvrG0I5gEa3UchoBLRUk].  We did not change the same text in the Triggers draft.

  (As an author) Talking with Rob, we agreed that it makes sense to update Triggers to match the latest text in Metadata.  Unless anyone has a strong objection to this, I'm going to suggest that when Triggers gets to AUTH48, that the authors update the text prior to publication.

thanx!
