An OASIS Work Product Repository
Members of the OASIS Open Command and Control (OpenC2) Technical Committee use this GitHub repository as part of the TC's chartered work. Contributors must be Members of the TC. Work is governed by the OASIS policies and is not done under typical open source licensing. For more details, see the Contributions and Licensing sections below.
This specification provides guidance to the OpenC2 implementation community when utilizing MQTT for OpenC2 message transport.
OpenC2 work product repositories are organized a bit differently than typical open source software project repositories:
- The Published (default) branch represents the current, stable, approved version of the work product. If the product hasn't progressed past an OASIS Committee Specification Draft (CSD), this branch is essentially empty
- The Working branch is where all work-in-progress content is captured, and is the place to go for the current working version of this work product
More information about the TC's repository organizing conventions and branching strategy can be found in our Documentation Norms.
This GitHub repository supports development of content and change tracking for the OpenC2 MQTT Transfer Specification as new working draft level revisions are created and the associated CSDs mature.
The repository is designed to support TC members' work on a formal specification that describes the use of Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) as a transfer mechanism for OpenC2 messages. MQTT provides a lightweight publish/subscribe reliable messaging transport protocol suitable for communication in M2M/IoT contexts where a small code footprint is required and/or network bandwidth is at a premium. This specification provides guidance to the OpenC2 implementation community when utilizing MQTT for OpenC2 message transport.
The provisional Work Product title for the work is: "Specification for Transfer of OpenC2 Messages via MQTT, Version 1.0", edited by David Lemire (HII). The specification explains the transfer of OpenC2 command and response messages using MQTT.
As stated in this repository's CONTRIBUTING file, contributors to this repository are expected to be Members of the OASIS OpenC2 TC, for any substantive change requests. Anyone wishing to contribute to this GitHub project and participate in the TC's technical activity is invited to join as an OASIS TC Member. Public feedback is also accepted, subject to the terms of the OASIS Feedback License.
Please see the LICENSE file for description of the license terms and OASIS policies applicable to the TC's work in this GitHub project.

Members of the OASIS Open Command and Control (OpenC2) TC create and manage technical content in this TC GitHub repository ( https://github.com/oasis-tcs/openc2-transf-mqtt ) as part of the TC's chartered work (i.e., the program of work and deliverables described in its charter).
OASIS TC GitHub repositories, as described in GitHub Repositories for OASIS TC Members' Chartered Work, are governed by the OASIS TC Process, IPR Policy, and other policies, similar to TC Wikis, TC JIRA issues tracking instances, TC SVN/Subversion repositories, etc. While they make use of public GitHub repositories, these TC GitHub repositories are distinct from OASIS Open Repositories, which are used for development of open source licensed content.
Please send questions or comments about OASIS TC GitHub repositories to the OASIS TC Administrator. For questions about content in this repository, please contact the TC Chair or Co-Chairs as listed on the the TC's home page.
