Mathematical Mesh Part IX: Considerations for use on Constrained Devices
                 draft-hallambaker-mesh-constrained-00

Abstract

   The Mathematical Mesh 'The Mesh' is an infrastructure that
   facilitates the exchange of configuration and credential data between
   multiple user devices and provides end-to-end security.  This
