Hi Esko,

I would also assume that the constraint part is the pledge in the first place, 
which may take over the role of a join proxy. If the intention is to emphasize 
that the pledge is constraint my favorite out of the 3 would be _Join Proxy for 
Lightweight Bootstrapping Protocols_.  I would understand the other two more in 
the direction of "reduced functionality" either of the network or the 
bootstrapping protocol itself.

A further alternative may be _Join Proxy for Bootstrapping of Constrained 
Network Elements_

Best regards
Steffen

>   This document extends the work of Bootstrapping Remote Secure Key
>   Infrastructures (BRSKI) by replacing the Circuit-proxy between
>   Pledge and Registrar by a stateless/stateful constrained Join
>   Proxy. The constrained Join Proxy is a mesh neighbor of the
>   Pledge and can relay a DTLS session originating from a Pledge with only 
> link-local
>   addresses to a Registrar which is not a mesh neighbor of the
>   Pledge.
>
>   This document defines a protocol to securely assign a Pledge to a domain,
>   represented by a Registrar, using an intermediary node between Pledge and
>   Registrar. This intermediary node is known as a "constrained Join
>   Proxy". An enrolled Pledge can act as a constrained Join Proxy.
