Hello,

[Routing Requirements]
As far as I remember, at the IETF-69 we have made the decision to
formulate the 6lowpan-specific routing requirements and feed them into
a hopefully soon existing ROLL working group. Also in IETF-70,
everyone seemed to agree that this is the way to go, so I don't know
why suddenly scepsis is raised again. Having 6lowpan based on IEEE
802.15.4, which differentiates between different device types/roles,
or the assumption that 6lowpans are not transit networks, are only two
examples of what creates sufficient difference to the routing
requirement drafts in ROLL.

[6lowpan/IPv6 Profiling]
It has been suggested to merge a minimal 6lowpan/IPv6 profile into the
"Use Cases for 6lowpan" item. In my opinion, the timeline for the "Use
Cases" document is already set quite generously, while I estimate the
work needed for defining such a minimal profile to be rather
extensive... Also, topicwise the two items are not well matched. The
"Use Cases" documents is aimed to provide a high-level application
overview, while a profile document would give very low-level
information and would fit much better into a "LoWPAN node requirements
for IPv6" document that Pascal has suggested (please correct me if I
misunderstood).

Best regards,
Dominik
