Light Client Spec: intro #581

Closed bhargavbh closed 1 year ago

bhargavbh commented 2 years ago

Add light client spec in the intro: brief mention of objectives of a light client; include high-level functional, efficiency and security requirements of the client. https://github.com/w3f/polkadot-spec/tree/bnb/light-client

bkchr commented 2 years ago

The spec should not mention most of the stuff. The spec should specify the light client protocol and that's it. If you want to describe how a light client works, that should be done outside of the spec, because this isn't the job of the spec.

Agreed. Will keep the intro bare minimum just to get the definitions going, with focus on requirements.
