Hi Geoff and Carsten,

I am also interested in contributing to:

      7. Interop Guide.

 

Regards,

>The *theme of the week* for the working group is the finalization of 

>the charter.  In particular, the following questions have been raised:

> 

>A) is the timeline, which was too tight, now too relaxed?  (Obviously,

>   the chairs don't think so, but what do you think?)

> 

>B) should there be work on a "minimal 6lowpan/IPv6 profile"?  (We had

>   envisioned each of the use cases to explain what protocols are used

>   in implementing that particular use case, not the generation of a

>   unified minimal profile that would apply to all use cases.)

> 

>C) Daniel has reminded us that there needs to be a management solution

>   at some point.  We're not sure that simply defining a MIB is the

>   right way to provide this (SNMPv3 on sensor nodes?).  Instead, we

>   could add "management method" to the subjects of the architecture

>   document before actually creating the solution.  Is that the right

>   place?

> 

>D) The discussions about multicast have reminded us that 4944 alone

>   does not provide a solution beyond a single radio range.  MANET's

>   SMF provides one, but presupposes some support from the routing

>   protocol.  The BbR approach reminds me of 802.11, where all

>   multicast is unicast to the AP which then sends it back into the

>   wireless network (which might allow a simplified flooding based on

>   something like RPF).

>E) There were some comments during the meeting that we already were

>   taking on a sizable amount of work.  I'm not sure we want to take

>   on all of the other points Daniel raised:

> 

>   [...] I guess we should consider how to improve the quality of RFC

>   4944, especially Global Address HC, TCP operation, ICMPv6 operation

>   and etc. RFC 4944-bis is one of options.

>   doable for the initial activity at this stage except specific

>   mobility solutions.

>F) Going through each of the documents, the following contributions

> 

>1 "6LoWPAN Bootstrapping and 6LoWPAN IPv6 ND Optimizations": 

>We have longstanding contributions from Samita Chakrabarti and Erik 

>Nordmark.

>Anybody else?  Daniel has also proposed to split 1 into bootstrapping 

>and ND optimization.  There is also the subject of commissioning.

>What is the right set of documents, and which ones do (each

>of) you want to work on?

> 

>2 "Problem Statement for Stateful Header Compression in 6LoWPANs":

>During the meeting, Kris Pister indicated that he was interested in 

>contributing, and Carsten Bormann might be contributing a bit of ROHC 

>background.

>3 "6LoWPAN Architecture" already has a draft from Dave Culler, Geoff 

>Mulligan, and JP Vasseur.  Any other takers?  In particular, somebody 

>with a network management slant?

> 

>3a "Routing requirements" (which needs its own milestone

>entry) has a draft from Dominik Kaspar, Eunsook Kim, and Carsten 

>Bormann.  During the RL2N BOF, a similar document was proposed as a 

>result of the RL2N-followup WG to be formed.  We need to understand 

>whether the two documents (the 6lowpan one and the rl2n++ one) are 

>sufficiently different or whether we simply need to cooperate on one 

>document, which would then have to include the 6lowpan-specific aspects 

>including mesh-under.

>4 "Use Cases for 6LoWPAN".  Zach Shelby has indicated his interest.

>Eunsook Kim et al.'s "Design and Application Spaces for 6LoWPANs"

>might provide a basis, but we need more input, in particular from 

>implementors of each of these scenarios that we actually want to use as 

>use cases.

> 

>5 "6LoWPAN Security Analysis".  Daniel / Anybody?  (Carsten and Geoff 

>might provide some input, but can't do this on their own.)

>6 Implementers' guide: Zach Shelby and Jonathan Hui are interested.
