Subject: [core] CoAP over TCP

It may seem obvious how to transport CoAP over TCP for the specific use cases that might benefit from that.  I have written up a small draft that discusses a couple more options than may come to mind immediately.  I wrote this up some time ago, but it might be useful as additional background material for Thursday's "Alternate Transports" segment.

Grüße, Carsten

Abstract:
  CoAP is defined to be transported over datagram transports such as
  UDP or DTLS.  For a number of applications, it may be useful to
  channel CoAP messages in a TCP connection.  This draft discusses
  different ways to do that.
