[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-592?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.s... ] Bela Ban commented on JGRP-592: ------------------------------- Implementing such a policy would be hard: * The assumption that the first member of a view is the coordinator is a tenet of JGroups as had been in place for a long time * Therefore, there is a lot of code which depends on this. Locating that code and changing it would be tedious * Also, a lot of third party code depends on this as well If we change this, the policy would therefore need to handle both the regular view change and a merge view change, but in both cases, the coordinator needs to be the first of the new view. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
