Re: [m2m-iwg] M2M Media Type?

Hello Philip,

The latest CoAP spec. draft (#18) has actually been approved as final during the summer, so I think we will start seeing more and more implementations and adopters.

Lack of maturity for CoAP makes it a non-starter at the moment. Hopefully it moves out of draft status in the next year because I am actually interested in it and have been keeping tabs on the spec … but I have to live in the present J

Hey folks,

 

Does anyone in the m2m-iwg think there should be an M2M/IoT IANA registered root media-type?  For example, instead of “application” we could use “m2m” to indicate this content-type is intended for machine consumption.

 

Could save some bytes too on all those HTTP requests flying around

 

If the aim is to reduce traffic, not using HTTP would be a better step.

CoAP is a web transfer protocol for constrained environments which has all of the same concepts as HTTP.

 

It uses a mapping from content type strings to small integers.
