Using the term `DVV` in the Strong Consistency docs is incorrect and misleading #1044

Closed russelldb closed 10 years ago

From here on down the use of DVV is incorrect and misleading. https://github.com/basho/basho_docs/blame/2.0.0/source/languages/en/riak/theory/concepts/strong-consistency.md#L70

We don't ever give a DVV to the client (we don't really have proper DVV in Riak yet.) Even with DVV you send only an opaque context to the client, and the client returns that opaque context. I think at best we could call it a causal or logical context. But not DVV please.

This is also being addressed in #1056. Closing.
