Hi All,

We just submitted a new revision of the NSA document.
Thanks for all the received feedback.

The main changes concern:

- Revising the text throughout the whole document to make clear that we talk 
about forwarding operation, not routing (previous text was misleading), hence 
completely in the scope of 6lo WG.

- Thanks lot  to Pascal T. (whom helped through a long private email exchange) 
the applicability of NSA has been clarified by adding text. Also, text has been 
added to clarify the properties of the allocation function, namely the fact 
that the proposed function is simple but not optimal and other optimized 
allocation functions can be developed in the future (hence the request to IANA 
to set up a registry for this purpose).

While we believe that the document is becoming mature, we still welcome any 
feedback people can send us.

Thanks

Ciao

L.

> Abstract:
>   This document specifies mechanisms of NSA (Native Short Address) that
>   enables IP packet transmission over links where the transmission of a
>   full length address may not be desirable.  This document focuses on
>   carrying IP packets across a LLN (Low power and Lossy Network), in
>   which the topology is relatively static where nodes' location is
>   fixed and the connection between nodes is rather stable.  The changes
>   in the logical topology are only caused by non-frequent disconnection
>   in the link due to some reasons.  The specifications details NSA
>   address allocation, forwarding mechanism, header format design,
>   including length-variable fields, and IPv6 interconnection support.
