Paxos made simple is ambiguous
joudinet opened this issue · comments
The author of the article "Paxos made simple" says in his website that this article contains an ambiguous sentence that may lead to incorrect implementations:
http://lamport.azurewebsites.net/pubs/pubs.html#paxos-simple
He explicitly says: "Do not try to implement the algorithm from this paper. Use [122] instead."
Looking at the README file of this project, I'm concern if you are aware of such ambiguity, and if your implementation is correct?
We learn 《The Part-Time Parliament》 before 《Paxos Made Simple》, so we don't
think our implementation is wrong. Of course, it is difficult to achieve 0
bugs in specific implementations, but we have verified on very large scale
clusters.
