Hi, All. Regarding IPv6 multicast address change in IoTivity, we need quick move. As a request of IoTivity Lead Architect, let me organize the time line as follows.
# IoTivity patch is submitted. (Stephane: done) # Verification (SungKyu.Ko : Virtual QA lead 7/12) # Code Merging (1.1-rel branch) (Ashok : Maintainer for CA Layer 7/12) # PF participant apply this update (Participants: 7/12) # CTT is modified with this update (Mitch : 7/12) Let me update the status whenever event happens. In addition to this patch, we may expect the another update for IoTivity 1.1.1 by tomorrow(7/13) BR, Uze Choi -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:iotivity-dev- bounces at lists.iotivity.org] On Behalf Of Mats Wichmann Sent: Tuesday, July 12, 2016 9:20 AM To: iotivity-dev at lists.iotivity.org Subject: Re: [dev] [architecture_tg] IPv6 Multicast Address assignment for "All OCF Nodes" On 07/11/2016 06:21 PM, Thiago Macieira wrote: > On segunda-feira, 11 de julho de 2016 20:29:16 PDT Dwarkaprasad Dayama wrote: >> Dear Stephane, >> >> That's really good news. >> Few Q's - >> >> 1.

The earliest we could have it is in 1.2.0. This doesn't sound viable to me. Immediately, except excluding 1.1 era implementations? > B) we add support for it and slowly deprecate the All CoAP Nodes > address > > That change could be in 1.1.x and we would schedule the deprecation > for something like 1.3.0. That means code rework to deal with trying on two address ranges during the transition period, no? No sure how trivial that is. Whichever, a decision Real Soon due to the status of 1.1.1 would seem to be needed. _______________________________________________ iotivity-dev mailing list iotivity-dev at lists.iotivity.org https://lists.iotivity.org/mailman/listinfo/iotivity-dev
