Discovery

<kaz> wot-discovery PR 313 - Security Bootstrapping

McCool: we got a lot of comments from farshidtz, it would be good if we can merge PR today

Jiye: do we need to consider different protocols such as CoAP as well?

McCool: yes, I was think about it, but it is kinda rushed. There are two options either we have CoAP with similar contents, or we allows only HTTP

McCool: Discovery picture is not clear and order to explain is wrong in the picture, so I made a PR explaining better

McCool: in the chapter, "Security boostrapping MUST... " should we need SHOULD here?
… : if we have MUST here, when there is better mechanism, we won't be able to use it

Jan: if you use NOSEC here then does not imply SHOULD already?

McCool: we have a sentence that if bootstrapping is not provided what happens, so SHOULD is a good idea

Jiye: agreed

Jan: agreed

McCool: will work a bit more on this and try to merge it today

Jan: when is the deadline for CoAP + discovery?

McCool: May 5, 2022 -Normative feature freeze. At least we need to make a branch and merge after that. I would like to test it in Testfest 2, June 6-10, 2022. I know you are playing with MQTT but MQTT is not feasible option.
… : However, CoAP shouldn't be that difficult

Jan: I am currently working on implementing Discovery, I will try to get it it there by next week
