[Handle-info] updating resolver cache

[Scott Yeadon <scott.yeadon@anu.edu.au>]

Hi,

If we are relying on the CNRI handle proxy service for resolution, 
according to the docs the proxy cache could take up to 24 hours to 
update in the event of a change to any of the handle values. Is there 
anything we can do to ensure the proxy pointed to the right resource 
after an update? For example, (at a clumsy level) if after an update in 
our LHS we posted a http resolution request to the proxy using the 
"auth=x" parameter I assume that would update the cache in one of the 
resolution servers, but would the results of that request be propogated 
to the other servers which make up the proxy service? If not, is there a 
way of ensuring accurate resolution after an update (programmatically, 
e.g. using the handle API)?

Scott.
