We have posted a new version of ND optimizations for LLNs. This closes all 
known tickets as per the WG meeting in Maastricht. In addition to fixing some 
nits and general editing, the substantive changes are:

      o Version field of ABRO moved after Length for 32-bit alignment of
      the reserved space (#90).

      o Several clarifications were made on router interaction,
      including a new section with router interaction examples (#91).

      o Temporary Neighbor Cache Entry created upon host sending NS+ARO,
      and SLLAO removed from multihop DAD NS/NA messages (#87).

> Abstract:
> The IETF 6LoWPAN working group defines IPv6 for low-power and lossy
> networks (LLNs) such as IEEE 802.15.4.  This and other similar link
> technologies have limited or no usage of multicast signaling due to
> energy conservation.  In addition, the wireless network may not
> strictly follow traditional concept of IP subnets and IP links.  IPv6
> Neighbor Discovery was not designed for non-transitive wireless
> links.  The traditional IPv6 link concept and heavy use of multicast
> make the protocol inefficient and sometimes impractical in a low
> power and lossy network.  This document describes simple
> optimizations to IPv6 Neighbor Discovery, addressing mechanisms and
> duplicate address detection for 6LoWPAN and similar networks.
