SUIT session at IEFT 103

1)     ITU-T SG17 sent a liaison statement to the WG that was discussed, and the WG agreed to add an informational reference to the SG17 doc, and keep terminology aligned between SUIT and SG17.

2)     SUIT participants gave a report from Hackathon and their implementation experience and learnings

3)     The architecture and information model document still need updates

4)     Most of the session was about manifest formats, and whether the WG should adopt 1 or 2.  (The charter allows the WG to decide.)

a.      Two formats were presented and discussed, one CBOR-based and one flat binary structure based.

b.      The chairs took a hum at the end for 1 format, 2 formats, and can't-tell-yet.   1 had the most hums, but can't tell yet was almost as significant, so chairs will confer.

c.      The goal is to make sure that the format(s) are widely applicable to as many IoT devices and MCUs as possible.
