<br>
I hope you are doing well.<br>
<br>
I noticed that the SPDM daemon design document where you were the <br>
primary contributor was merged around Feb 2023 [1]; however, I have not <br>
seen any corresponding repository creation or code contributions since <br>
then. At IBM, we are keen on leveraging the recently released SPDM over <br>
TCP specification from DMTF [2] and extending the existing design to <br>
support attestation over TCP [3].<br>
<br>
I wanted to check whether you are still interested in up-streaming the <br>
implementation. If so, I would be delighted to collaborate and <br>
contribute the necessary enhancements to accommodate TCP-based use <br>
cases. If you don’t intend to upstream, I am happy to <br>
contribute/maintain code & develop a solution that ensures the stack is <br>
architected to seamlessly scale for both TCP and MCTP transport mechanisms.<br>
<br>
I look forward to your thoughts and the opportunity to collaborate.<br>
<br>
