......................................................................


Patch Set 4:

Responses to Alon's comments.

"Please always rebase patches... I've moved the @Override to base patch."

>> I actually had tried to do that, but looks like I goofed up somewhere 
>> (possibly rebased with the older patch-set!). Will rebase correctly when I 
>> send the next patch-set.


"What if destination X changes IP address between (1) and (2)?"

>> Interesting scenario. Maybe we should have a version of the connect() method 
>> which takes an additional argument - the fingerprint verified by the user, 
>> and validates against it before sending the credentials?

Also, the use case here is more like:

 - connect to host h1, get fingerprint
 - connect to host h2, get fingerprint
 - ...
 - connect to host hn, get fingerprint
 - display all these fingerprints to user
 - If user approves all fingerprints, add all of them to the cluster

"floating features within product is not something that is wise"

>> Let us agree to disagree on this one :) Also I'm not sure whether I conveyed 
>> correctly that the other patch that is supposed to consume this method is 
>> actually under development and will be sent to gerrit very soon.

"A better process is to write several patches then either merge them at same 
time"

>> I'm completely ok with this one! As I said, We're working on the feature 
>> that uses this method right now, and the corresponding patch will be in real 
>> soon - so no problem in merging both these patches at same time. Generally, 
>> we work on multiple patches that are dependent on each other, and are 
>> developed and reviewed by different folks. In some cases it may not be 
>> possible to merge them at exactly same time, but we make sure that they get 
>> merged in quick succession.

"I will add something similar to the core patch, superseding this one."

>> Are you suggesting that this patch can be abandoned and you'll take care of 
>> providing a similar method (getFingerprint) in your core patch?
