Subject: RE: [obix-xml] Re: Proposal for Alternate oBIX Encodings
I figured that’s what you were working toward, but I have
to check now and again.. "A man should never be ashamed to own that he has been in
the wrong, which is but saying ... that he is wiser today than yesterday."

[mailto:brian.tridium@gmail.com] What we have discussed here is putting a gateway b/w the Pan
and the Internet at large such that: - External world uses normal HTTP / XML oBIX - Internal PAN used Chopan / Binary oBIX In this design there is no loss of fidelity in
that the protocol and data model is exactly the same on both sides of the
gateway - just different encodings. The goal is that "enterprise" guys just use normal
HTTP and XML. On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 2:17 PM, Considine, Toby (Campus

building system integration products, we have to keep the focus on the purpose
of oBIX as an Enterprise interface to building systems. If the alternate oBIX
encoding is entirely subsumed behind a wireless gateway to a wireless oBIX
gizmo, this does not matter much. If we expect enterprise programmers to now
start using oBIX specific libraries, that that is a problem. Whatever tight serialization we
use, it should be as open, as unquirky. As widely adopted as we can
manage. |
