[jira] [Created] (MESOS-7662) Documentation regarding TASK_LOST is misleading

Gastón Kleiman created MESOS-7662:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Documentation regarding TASK_LOST is misleading
                 Key: MESOS-7662
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-7662
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Gastón Kleiman
            Assignee: Gastón Kleiman


Our protos describe {{TASK_LOST}} as a terminal state [\[1\]|https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/fb54d469dcadf762e9c3f8a2fed78ed7b306120a/include/mesos/mesos.proto#L1722] [\[2\]|https://github.com/apache/mesos/blob/fb54d469dcadf762e9c3f8a2fed78ed7b306120a/include/mesos/mesos.proto#L64-L73].

A task might go from {{TASK_LOST}} to {{TASK_RUNNING}} or another state if Mesos is not using a strict register, so the documentation is misleading.

Marathon used to assume that {{TASK_LOST}} was a terminal past and that resulted in production pain for some users.

We should update the documentation to make the life of frameworks developers a bit better =).
