The goal of Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) is to
provide guidance to applications, which have to select one or several
hosts from a set of candidates, that are able to provide a desired
resource.

This document describes why a third-party ALTO server discovery
mechanism is required for an important class of applications, namely
tracker-based P2P applications.  Several solution approaches are
classified and evaluated.  The conclusion is that further work is
required to standardize a protocol and procedures that follow one
specific approach.
