Well I do not see a consensus here ... Looking at the emails on the subject,
2 in favor, 2 opposed.

My proposal.

Original text:
3. Produce "6LoWPAN Architecture" to describe the design and
implementation of 6LoWPAN networks.  This document will cover the
concepts of "Mesh Under" and "Route Over", 802.15.4 design issues such
as operation with sleeping nodes, network components (both battery-
and line-powered), addressing, and IPv4/IPv6 network connections.
As a spin-off from that document, "6LoWPAN Routing Requirements" will
describe 6LoWPAN-specific requirements on routing protocols used in
6LoWPANs, addressing both the "route-over" and "mesh-under" approach.
Both documents will be informational.

I see that some people want to see the concept of mesh-under and route over
covered in the architecture document, fine (although it looks pretty
straightforward).

The text I'm disagreeing with is:

" As a spin-off from that document, "6LoWPAN Routing Requirements" will
describe 6LoWPAN-specific requirements on routing protocols used in
6LoWPANs, addressing both the "route-over" and "mesh-under" approach.
Both documents will be informational."

Why a spin-off ? Make it a separate ID in the first place. Requirements
should NOT be discussed in architecture ID. Furthermore, I would slightly
reword, remove "addressing both the "route-over" and "mesh-under" approach.
And mention that the document will be owned by 6owpan and reviewed by ROLL.

Does it make sense ?

Thanks.

JP.
