I'm try to find different points of view, so my initial question. HTTP is quite lightweight and not a problem for constrained devices per se. See e.g. http://www.sics.se/~adam/yazar09efficient.pdf That said, HTTP may not always be the perfect solution for everything, but it is definitely achievable. /adam -- Adam Dunkels <adam@sics.se>se>, +46707731614 http://twitter.com/adunk | http://www.sics.se/~adam/
