[Nfd-dev] Question about packet format v0.3 transition

[Junxiao Shi]

Hi Arthi


I'm hoping to use an Interest with parameters, and since support for that

Within the next few months, ndn-cxx must remain compatible with Packet
Format 0.2 endpoints. Therefore, new fields such as Parameters are
unavailable.
I'm unaware of any "separate branch" for this feature. In general, I advise
developers not to do significant development that cannot be merged within a
few weeks, in order to avoid merge conflicts.

Few people has any idea on how Interest Parameters *should* be used.
Some protocol issues related to Interest Parameters adoption are:
https://redmine.named-data.net/issues/4599 Signed Interest and Command
Interest
https://redmine.named-data.net/issues/4600 NFD Management protocol
Sadly, nobody is working on these.

Yours, Junxiao
