I have submitted a new version of ND for 6LoWPAN:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-02.txt
Changes from -01 include:
- Fixed 16 != 0xff bug (ticket closed)
- Specified use of ULAs in ad-hoc LoWPAN section 9 (ticket closed)
- Terminology cleanup based on Alex's comments
- General editing improvements
Known open issues:
- Specify Trickle in an appendix or just reference it?
- RA information dissemination consistency in more detail in Section 7
I would like to request a presentation slot of 45 minutes from the
chairs to present the draft in SFO.

A new version of I-D, draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd-02.txt has been successfuly
submitted by Zach Shelby and posted to the IETF repository.
Filename: draft-ietf-6lowpan-nd
Revision: 02
Title: Neighbor Discovery for 6LoWPAN
Creation_date: 2009-03-09
WG ID: 6lowpan
Number_of_pages: 46
Abstract:
This document specifies Neighbor Discovery optimized for 6LoWPAN.
The 6LoWPAN format allows IPv6 to be used over energy and bandwidth
constrained wireless networks often making use of extended multihop
topologies. However, the use of standard IPv6 Neighbor Discovery
with 6LoWPAN has several problems. Standard Neighbor Discovery was
not designed for wireless links, and the standard IPv6 link concept
and heavy use of multicast makes it inefficient. This document
spefies a new ND mechanism allowing for efficient Duplicate Address
Detection over entire LoWPANs. In addition it specifies context
dissemination for use with router advertisements, claim and defend
addressing, and the support of extended LoWPANs over backbone links.
