There was a problem hiding this comment.
Couple of small things; would it be possible to cancel a multicast request using unicoap_cancel?

I assume this is an implementation of https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7390? I was yesterday pointed to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-core-groupcomm-bis/ which obsoletes RFC7390 with many more features. Might be worth to have a look. It is about to be published as RFC: https://queue.rfc-editor.org/#draft-ietf-core-groupcomm-bis |
