Technical Summary

Full management of software updates for unattended, connected devices requires 
a 
cooperation between the update author(s) and management, distribution, policy 
enforcement, and auditing systems. This specification provides optional 
extensions 
to the SUIT manifest that enable an author to coordinate with these other 
systems. 
These optional extensions enable authors to instruct devices to examine update 
priority, 
local update authorisation, update lifetime, and system properties. They also 
enable 
devices to report and distributors to collect Software Bill of Materials 
information.

Working Group Summary

No controversy.  This is the last of the original suit drafts.  
The publication of this draft will allow the cluster to be published too.

Document Quality

There are at least two public implementations of this protocol.

The extension grammar is defined using CDDL (RFC8610).  The grammar 
and EDN snippets have been checked.  Both are in good shape.  


Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Thomas Fossati. The
