Comment on Just because it's an Internet Draft doesn't mean anything at all (2014)

Comments

RFCs are just a way for big corporations to collaborate on shared standards. It doesn't mean that other approaches can't become standards as well. It's kind of disturbing that RFCs seem to give projects automatic trustworthiness that they didn't actually earn.

At least more than one interested party thought about it, and documented the result. It might not be good, but it's worth evaluating to see if it's good enough.

Tldr: if you must send datagrams via pigeons, consider the rfc, then use an exfat microsd card.
