name The name of the stream. Yes

Scoped Source Components

One Components element can be specified within the AcceptSource element. Components elements are used to collect Component elements. The Components element is optional. One or more Component elements can be specified within the Components element. Component elements in this case define which components are scoped to this source. At least one Component element is required if a Components element is defined. See "Components and Component Elements" above for more information on the format of these elements.

DeliverTargets and DeliverTarget Elements

One DeliverTargets element can be specified within the Stream element. DeliverTargets elements are used to collect DeliverTarget elements. The DeliverTargets element is optional.
