LTP
Updates to LTP Things List
Discussi​on: How many configurations should be mandatory to implement?

  *   Have one implementation (maybe the mandatory one?) use variable-length fields?
  *   What if we don’t mandate ANY required-to-implement configuration?
  *   Josh argues for at least one mandatory to ensure some interoperability
  *   Still no auto-negotiation of which profile to use -- that’s still configuration
  *   Stripped-down fixed-length field version for mandatory implementation would be OK.

Should CCSDS mandate implementation of at least one interoperable profile?
Pros:

  *   There would be at least one profile that you could guarantee would work with all LTP implementations.  A user picking up two LTP iplementations would be guaranteed that they could at least be made to interoperate (even if the mandatory profile doesn't produce particuarly good performance).
Cons:

  *   ​Requires implementers to implement something that they might not ever use.​
​Need to think on this more.

​
​​Non-singleton-destination stuff in draft-31
Changes to dispatching and forwarding failed subsections
Inclusion of DTN URI Scheme (CCSDS spec required use of the ipn naming scheme); use of IMC naming scheme.
Discovery mechanism?  More targeted at human spaceflight / lunar exploration?  What link-layer mechanism to use (USLP?  USLP with some sort of modified COP?)  Need some sort of broadcast address?  Prox-1?
Something to force identification of connecting nodes at the CLA level?  Make them send a bundle with a previous-hop-block when you establish a connection?  Needs to be part of the (all?) CLA protocol(s).
@Keith: Cross-check this stuff with:​

  *   Lee's briefing at CCSDS last year
  *   Jonathan Wilmot's deisred capabilities
And build out a spreadsheet of
