Re: Welcome & Introductions

Hi Kyra and the W3 ICN,

Based in Denmark, I is working on an open Information-Centric Networking 
based protocol called Z-Mesh, used for Internet of Things. It is a open 
connectivity-platform, used to connect any app to any sensor. I would 
like to contribute to the internet being an open, 
de-centralized/distributed place which can serve as an open platform for 
vendors and consumers and communities.

Z-Mesh features include:

* Hybrid Naming Scheme: Network-ID + Content-Name
* Configurable Content Name structure (for wildcard support)
* Publish/Subscribe
* Each network has own Message Authentication Code (only known devices 
can participate)
* Frame Sequence Number (Incremented every time Content Name is updated)
* Device Management built-in
* Thin application layer for most common data-types
* Encryption- and MAC- algorithm agnostic
* Support for Firmware update over-the-air
* Cyber-Resilience-Act compliance

We have implemented Z-Mesh in products like accelerometers, temp/humid- 
and motion sensors and Forwarders are used as Content Stores.

Learn more about our Z-Mesh here: https://z-mesh.org

Feel free to contact me for a quick online talk on anything ICN-related.
