Subject: [Dime] DOIC terminology thought

Hi,

The DOIC agent use case draft that Steve and I submitted proposed the terms Transaction Client and Transaction Server to talk about the roles in the context of transaction direction, rather than in the context of network purpose as in the way RFC 6733 defines "client" and "server".

In an offline email, Dave proposed the alternatives of "Requestor" and "Answerer". I like those better, since they capture the idea in a single word, and avoid the temptation to introduce Yet Another Acronym (YAA).

Thoughts?
