I get what you mean when I get to the end of page 6 though, but I still don't like the term as used here. - figure 1 doesn't tell me much to be honest, I'd say delete it maybe or add some more text saying what it's there for. - p6, proxies are provided for http yes, but why would they be needed for coap? coap devices are not rendering html so don't have a need for loads of DNS names/pictures/ads. I think that's in the end a misleading conparison to make and would be better omitted. (BTW, I don't mean you're trying to mislead, but that that comparison is likely to mislead the reader into thinking they may get more from coap proxies than is the case.) - p7, at end of section 3, you could (if you wanted), make the point that "higher" layer network protocols like a DTN protocol such as the BP could help (if deployed widely) as then applications wouldn't assume that what they send is (almost) immediately received. More practically, applications can re-invent DTN functionality and get some of those benefits. - section 5, I think it'd be worth noting that there is a need for (but no good solution for) discovery of devices that are manufactured by small manufs (or open source) and deployed in small numbers. That is not the same as when a large vendor is involved but would be worth noting. - section 9: large numbers of esp. small battery powered devices scattered everywhere are a significant polution threat. (When not gathered at end of life.) That arguably ought be noted as a reason to spend more on e.g. PoE devices sometimes - the overall environmental or carbon cost can be lower in the end with a device that uses more power per hour. _______________________________________________ Lwip mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/lwip
