Description
We define the programming interfaces to network protocols in TinyOS 2.x, specify and document protocols to support interoperability between different implementations, and provide and support reference protocol implementations in TinyOS 2.x. So far, we have released CTP, MultihopLQI, Drip, DIP, and Deluge protocols.

Charter
The TinyOS 2.0 Network Protocol Working Group (net2) is responsible for
* defining the programming interfaces to network protocols in TinyOS 2.x, * specifying and documenting protocols to support interoperability between different implementations, and * providing and supporting reference protocol implementations.

Relevant TinyOS Enhancement Proposals (TEPs)
. In TinyOS, TEPs are used to document and standardize OS implementations, interfaces, mechanisms, and programming conventions. The Network Protocol Working Group has contributed TEPs that propose, document, and specify network protocols. The TEPs are available at http://tinyos.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tinyos/tinyos-2.x/doc/txt.
