The IESG has approved the following document: - 'A Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR)-based Serialization Format for the Software Updates for Internet of Things (SUIT) Manifest' (draft-ietf-suit-manifest-33.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Software Updates for Internet of Things Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Paul Wouters, Deb Cooley and Roman Danyliw. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-suit-manifest/ Technical Summary This specification describes the format of a manifest. A manifest is a bundle of metadata about code/data obtained by a recipient (chiefly the firmware for an IoT device), where to find the code/data, the devices to which it applies, and cryptographic information protecting the manifest. Software updates and Trusted Invocation both tend to use sequences of common operations, so the manifest encodes those sequences of operations, rather than declaring the metadata. Working Group Summary There is consensus for this document in the SUIT WG. Document Quality Projects at multiple IETF Hackathon have informed this document. Personnel The Document Shepherd for this document is Russ Housley. The Responsible Area Director is Roman Danyliw. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
