IMO dissemination of templates to the receivers over a unrealiable channel such as multicast is not a very good idea. Because even if they detect that the new message they receive is not as per the template they are working with the receivers stay blocked.
A reliable stream with some form of acknowledgment should be used to ensure that all the parties actually receive the templates.
The parties are free to use the channel whether FTP or connection stream to get the most recent copy of the template.
The sender should ensure that the messages using changed templates structure are sent only when most of the receivers actually are aware of the change. (version number can be used to identify which template is being used for the sent message)
IMO if the sender starts disseminating the new message without anyone aware about it it breaks the motive of electronic communication.
Regards,
Darshan
