It seems to me IMHO bt-le is just a new phy, but same mac, hence ip
would not be affected.
From the presentation, I had a different impression.
But of course, a document stating we do things over bt-le as
usually as over bt, would not hurt.
Actually, it is required, as RFC4944 and its updates only define
6LoWPAN for IEEE 802.15.4. If two people took these documents and
tried to apply them to BT-LE, they wouldn't necessarily arrive at
interoperable specifications.
To me IMHO bluetooth is to 802.15.4 what wifi is to 802.11 - a marketing
name. It seems sufficient to specify ipv6 over 802.15.4 and that would
cover all variants of bluetooth. There is no ipv6-over-802.11n, nor
ipv6-over-wifilowpower, for example.
I may be wrong though about bluetooth being mostly 802.15.4 rfc4944 and
rfc2460.
Is the WG re-opened?
No, it is alive and well until such a time when it is actually being
closed. All that was said is that the Prague meeting will be the last
physical meeting of the WG. We want to close our unfinished business,
and a number of documents are based on discussions that went on at
least since Beijing, so if they fit our charter and we have energy to
work on them, there is no problem doing that.
sounds like doing new work without physical meetings... ok...
