Everyone, In discussions as part of the GENART review processes, Mark Nottingham has further clarified his concerns about the use of .well-known. He would prefer that we abandon its use altogether. He suggests instead that we use the templating approach for parameters that are coming from the MUD controller through the use of RFC 6570. The value of using templates to me is that MUD controllers can pass additional parameters to the MUD file server based on their observations of the device. This might be due, for instance, to network endpoint assessments (NEA) or for other reasons. We might also be able to insert a MUD version for versions > 1. What is important is that the elements in the template be standardized, and that it be possible for them to be ignored by the MUD file server if it doesn't understand them. That permits backward compatibility. This also provides the ability to shrink the MUD-URL.
For these reasons I think this is a good change. I also hope it would be the last change. Are people comfortable with this change? Eliot
