Hello all,

As I haven't been actively involved for a while I was looking through  
the 'base2' recently. As I was grouping distinct functionality in the  
base it realised that there is a bit of ambiguousness with the  
ls-client-api, specifically the client part. Depending on your point  
of view one could say that a service that is registering with an  
(home) Lookup service is also a 'client'. Yet the ls-client-api  
doesn't (and shouldn't) contain functionally to do so. To provide  
everyone with a clear intention as to what the api is for I propose  
renaming it to
ls-lookup-api resp. ls-registration-api(though currently it's still  
entangled with the base). I'm not married to the specifics - actually  
thinking about it some more I think I favor:

ls-discovery-api and
ls-registration-api

Regards,

Michael
