 A key feature desired by experimenters, but not yet included in the Aggregate Manager API, is the ability to update a reservation in place, without losing the existing reservation. At times, this has been called !UpdateSlivers. There is not currently an acceptable proposal for this feature that has been circulated.
 
-Older proposals, withdrawn, superseded, or postponed: 
- - [wiki:GAPI_AM_API_DRAFT/Archive#ChangeSetC:UpdateSlivers Change Set C]: ''On hold'' (waiting for a revised proposal). Add the ability to !UpdateSlivers to immediately modify your reservation
- - [wiki:GAPI_AM_API_DRAFT/Archive#ChangeSetE:Tickets Change Set E: Tickets]: ''On hold'' (waiting for a revised proposal). Add methods using tickets to do negotiated reservations
- - ~~[wiki:GAPI_AM_API_DRAFT/Archive#ChangeSetF1:DefineSliverStates Change Set F1]: ''Superseded'' by F3 and F4: Define sliver states, and the state changes that various methods cause~~
- - ~~[wiki:GAPI_AM_API_DRAFT/Archive#ChangeSetF2:ActOnSlivers Change Set F2]: ''Superseded'' by F3 and F4: Add a new general !ActOnSlivers method allowing AMs to support AM and resource-type specific operations~~
- - ~~[wiki:GAPI_AM_API_DRAFT/Archive#ChangeSetH Change Set H]: ''Superseded by F3'': Clarify: A second call to !CreateSlivers without an intervening !DeleteSlivers is an error.~~

 Currently we heavily constrain legal characters in the 'name' portion of slice and sliver URNs. See GeniApiIdentifiers. This is awkward. In particular characters like colons, periods, and underscores are not allowed, but are very useful as separators.
