Certainly!

I would like to structure this discussion into three items:

        1) sanity check: Is what we are doing with Content-Format (coap-12's
           name for what was Content-Type earlier) the right thing for the
           majority of CoAP applications?

        2) requirements: What are the applications we can't cover with
           Content-Format?  What use-cases are behind them?

        3) solution: is draft-doi-core-parameter-option the right solution
           for these (some of these) use-cases?

I think I can introduce 1, and I'd like you to do 2 and 3, with a focus on really making the case for 2.

I'd like to allocate some 10 min for this.  If we get a good discussion about 1 and/or 2, we should be flexible about that.
