Wouldn't that be more appropriate in a content schema? I
thought we were looking into a Sensor specification and I am not certain that
something that is machine specific doesn't belong there....
Thanks,

EDXL DE "issue" senderID

The CAP philosophy of messages
being sent from "people" to "people" thru application interface forms is not
the "machine" to "machine" EDXL philosophy. Sensor devices are not
always uniquely associated with a domain and they are for sure not sent by an
individual actor. In fact, most are on private "e.g. 10.1.1.1" internet
non-routable networks. Because there are so many instantiations of these
types of sensor networks we have explored MAC addresses of devices NICs for
identifying the unique source of the application device sending the EXDL
message. We need to consider expanding the restriction of
<senderID> to more than an individual "e-mail
address".
