Based on the extensive feedback I got for the 6LowApp Bar BOF, I have
slightly extended the problem statement:
http://u.nu/2bfj =
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bormann-6lowpan-6lowapp-problem-01.txt
Thanks to all the additional contributors. (I don't agree with all
their comments, but I tried to err on the side of capturing as many
requirements as possible.)
The Bar BOF is still scheduled at ->Tue 18:30<-.
I'm going to ask the ADs for a room so we can hear each other (and
maybe use a projector).
Again, please tell me if you want a slot in the structured part.
Even after the I-D deadline, you can continue to capture information
at the Bar BOF Wiki:

The 6LoWPAN and ROLL WGs are laying the groundwork to make the
Wireless Embedded Internet a reality, but what application protocols
will we use? Request-response protocols like HTTP are a poor fit to
a communication model with battery-operated, mostly sleeping nodes.
In addition, the usual data formats (both headers and body) are
perceived to be too chatty for the 50-60 byte payloads possible in
LoWPANs and to require too much code for the 8-bit and 16-bit
processors dominating the Internet of Things. Still, it would be a
mistake to start a new silo of application protocols that do not
benefit from existing application area Internet experience.
At IETF75, we will hold a Bar BOF to scope out possible IETF work
and maybe form an opinion on which part should be done in which IETF
area.
Tentative information is at http://u.nu/6jfh =
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/area/app/trac/wiki/BarBofs/IETF75/6LowApp
(and you are welcome to contribute to this Wiki page).
-> Please tell us whether the envisaged date and time of ->Tue
18:30<- will work for you!
A first version of a problem statement (where the above paragraph
was stolen from) is at:
http://tools.ietf.org/id/6lowapp
(draft-bormann-6lowpan-6lowapp-problem-00.txt)
I will start planning an agenda for the Bar BOF soon, so if you have
something to say that would help in this conversation, please tell
me (with an estimated amount of time).
Gruesse, Carsten
