[MOBY-dev] BioMOBY Asynchronous Service Call Proposal v2.3

[Paul Gordon]

Hi all,

Sorry I'm getting into this discussion so late, but it would seem to me 
that it would be helpful to add a ResourceProperty that gives the client 
a hint as to how often they should check back for an answer.  The server 
would have a much better idea of the appropriate interval than the 
client, no?  If my client software generally checks every minute for 
async job responses, but the process always takes a day, that's a lot 
(1440) of useless polling requests.  A bit like the Refresh header in 
HTTP...

Cheers,

Paul
