A provider now waits for a person before retiring more than three consumers
or half of what it holds, and deletes only when asked. The controller is that
person's way in: it keeps waiting and rejected sets as conditions, answers them
with retire approve|reject, lists and deletes retired consumers through the
provider's own tools on its machine, records each act in the hand-act log, and
probes for anything retired longer than thirty days (D11).
The identity provider failed every consumer for a day and status called the
mesh well (hq issue 179). The controller now follows every provider's
provisioner.failing/recovered, keeps the newest failing word per provider,
machine and consumer (migration 0065), and status, its JSON and node show
name it until it recovers. Every module that receives contributions is
granted the two events, so no manifest can forget them.
