HI Esko,

The PR of MCR has been applied to main,
meaning that we now use the rt-values brski.jp and brski.rjp.

Greetings,

Peter

Apart from the discussion whether the (current) hierarchical naming convention is to be used, or any names without hierarchy (because it is allowed for rt), there is an additional consideration to make.

If a Pledge wants to use CoAP discovery to discover one of a Constrained Join Proxy or Registrar on the link, because typically it would be able to contact both (DTLS connection & messages are identical), it would help very much if it only has to do a single discovery action for both. And not 2 separate discovery actions.

If the Pledge discovers for resources with rt=brski* , this is useful as it will find resource "rt=brski" indicating a Registrar and also resources "rt=brski.jp" indicating a Constrained Join Proxy. I can pick either one it finds. If both are found it may prefer the Registrar directly (rt=brski).

In my view this naming choice (brski.*) thus makes things more efficient and consistent; it is more than just a name.

Regards
Esko

I checked the new version against my review comments; and the following
comment is still open - this is where Peter and me disagree.

understood.
I have no real opinion.

core.* - CoRE WG types
ace.* - ACE WG types
brski.* - ANIMA WG types for BRSKI - not yet in the registry but specified in
draft-constrained-voucher.
oic.* - any types specified by OCF/OIC
fa.*  - any types specified by Fairhair Alliance

Hence my request to comply to this convention, however undocumented it
is today. Any system architect would agree to that seeing the current
list.

Can we ask core@ to review and comment then?
