Hi Jonathan,

This request is for next update/revision whenever possible. Sorry for the
late response.

It'd be very useful if this document provides an example section of
encoding/decoding of link-local, global and multicast addressed IPv6 header
in stateless and stateful mode.

For example, I had to read a few times to look for the behavior of
context-based compression methods for unicast in the document as it is
hiding in the field definitions of SAC and DAC.

Section 3.2 has two subsections on stateless and stateful mcast address
compression - we should also have similar sub-sections for unicast cases for
clarity and understanding. 

Thanks,
-Samita
