Dear Mini-NDN developers and community,</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
My name is Yulong Zhang, a third-year PhD student from The Hong Kong University of Science of Technology (HKUST) under the supervision of Prof. Dirk Kutscher.</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
I'm writing to follow up on a discussion initiated in GitHub Issue #80 ([<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://github.com/named-data/mini-ndn/issues/80" target="_new" id="OWA40a84756-e9e4-3186-e54a-b06c875eba7b" class="OWAAutoLink" rel="noopener">https://github.com/named-data/mini-ndn/issues/80</a>]).
In that issue, I inquired about the support for<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code>python-ndn</code> (<a href="https://python-ndn.readthedocs.io/" target="_new" id="OWAfa8974d0-41b3-94e3-9a72-93efe49fef68" class="OWAAutoLink" rel="noopener" data-start="571" data-end="643">https://python-ndn.readthedocs.io/</a>)
within the Mini-NDN environment.</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
Awlane kindly responded, clarifying that while<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code>python-ndn</code> applications are generally supported, direct wrappers or integration examples at the Mini-NDN layer were not currently available, and contributions
in this direction would be appreciated. Awlane also recommended using this mailing list for further discussions.</div>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
I'm pleased to report that, following that exchange, I have dedicated some time to this and have successfully managed to set up and run NDN applications developed using<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code>python-ndn</code> within Mini-NDN experiments.
I've worked through the practical steps required to integrate and execute these applications effectively in the simulated environment.</div>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
Recognizing that others in the community might also be interested in leveraging<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code>python-ndn</code> with Mini-NDN, I believe sharing concrete examples and perhaps a brief guide could be quite valuable. These examples
could demonstrate how to:</div>
<ol start="1" data-start="1585" data-end="1903" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;">
<li style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
<div style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Structure a<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><code>python-ndn</code> application for use within Mini-NDN.</div>
</li><li style="font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
<div class="elementToProof" style="margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;">Potentially handle dependencies or environment setup within the Mini-NDN nodes.</div>
</li></ol>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
Therefore, I would be very happy to prepare and share these implementation details and practical examples. My hope is that they could potentially be refined and incorporated into the official Mini-NDN documentation, perhaps as a tutorial or a dedicated section
on using different NDN application libraries.</div>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
If these examples and potential documentation updates are found useful by the project and are incorporated,<b>would it be possible for me to be acknowledged as a contributor to the Mini-NDN project for this specific work?</b></div>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
Thank you for your time, consideration, and the excellent work on Mini-NDN. I look forward to hearing from you regarding this proposal.</div>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none; margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: Aptos, Aptos_EmbeddedFont, Aptos_MSFontService, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">
