The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Group Communication for CoAP' (draft-ietf-core-groupcomm-25.txt) as Informational RFC This document is the product of the Constrained RESTful Environments Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Barry Leiba and Pete Resnick. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-core-groupcomm/ Technical Summary This document provides (Informational) illustration and guidance on how to use the CoAP protocol (RFC 7252) in a group communication context, including the use of IP multicast. (The functionality for this is provided in the base specification, but with very little guidance on good ways to use it.) Review and Consensus The document was developed along with the base CoAP specification and received review by a number of active WG members and implementers. It is not easy to obtain extensive review of informational documents from the community, but the shepherd is convinced that we have enough WG-level review for publication as an Informational document. Wider review (e.g., directorate reviews) has not yet been taken place. Messages have been sent to core-parameters@ietf.org for core.gp and media-types@iana.org for coap-group+json; the intention is that this processing can go on in parallel. Personnel Carsten Bormann is the document shepherd. Barry Leiba is the responsible Area Director.
