            <title>[DRIVERS-2050] Duplicate read preference specifications</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DRIVERS-2050</link>
                <project id="10980" key="DRIVERS">Drivers</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;The specifications repo has a top level file called &quot;driver read preference&quot;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/driver-read-preferences.rst&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/driver-read-preferences.rst&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is a rather extensive document, but there is also this section on read preference in server selection specification:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/server-selection/server-selection.rst#read-preference&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/server-selection/server-selection.rst#read-preference&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The two documents seem to cover the same functionality. The top level spec does not use rfc2119 language making it difficult to figure out what the actual requirements it imposes on drivers are. Sections like &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/driver-read-preferences.rst#errors&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;https://github.com/mongodb/specifications/blob/master/source/driver-read-preferences.rst#errors&lt;/a&gt; make me think the top level spec is the older of the two and potentially outdated.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It seems to me that the two specifications should be combined into a single document (or a section under server selection, if this makes more sense).&lt;/p&gt;</description>
