@lkuper Our first draft is ready for review.
Q1: Looks good. This one is mostly a matter of individual interpretation, but I think you called out some of the key things (no diagrams, confusing extended analogy, etc.).
Q2:
Q3: Several issues here...
The main point I'm hoping you reflect on with this question is just that, no matter what, strong consistency will sometimes be relatively slow for clients.
Also, I realized that something in the paper might not be clear. The quote from the paper says:
failure of an acceptor could make it impossible to know whether or not a majority had accepted a particular proposal I think what this means is that failure of a particular acceptor in a majority that accepted a proposal (say, if we have acceptors A, B, and C, proposal number 5 was accepted by A and B, and thenn A fails) then we can't learn that the majority acccepted proposal 5. However, at that point B and C are still up, so someone can still issue a new proposal with a higher number and have it accepted by a majority.
@lkuper The edited version is now posted on the Wiki
