Investigate alternative discovery mechanisms
Follow-up from Berlin F2F - See slide 43 of the slide deck
This is a placeholder to investigate alternative discovery mechanisms. Currently we have specified SSDP as the non-mandatory alternative to mDNS for the V1 Open Screen protocol. We can look at additional alternatives that may include (but not be limited to):
- A new, simpler multicast protocol that just broadcasts CBOR records.
- Bluetooth
- Internet DNS or cloud based registries
- QR codes
- NFC
Some may be out of scope per charter. We will need to scope or revise the charter appropriately; when that is done, we can open sub-issues for further investigation.
