ROLLers, 6LoWPANners,

Are you groups both going to request new ICMP types for apparently similar functionalities (low-power PAN, low-power networks)?

6lowpan-nd draft says:
13. IANA Considerations
   This document requires two new ICMPv6 message types:
   o  Node Registration (TBD1)
   o  Node Confirmation (TBD2)

RPL draft says:
9.1. RPL Control Message The RPL Control Message is an ICMP information message type that is
   to be used carry DAG Information Objects, DAG Information
   Solicitations, and Destination Advertisement Objects in support of
   RPL operation.
   IANA has defined a ICMPv6 Type Number Registry.  The suggested type
   value for the RPL Control Message is 155, to be confirmed by IANA.

Or maybe the similarity is not that much that I see?
