Thank you.

I think it'd be useful for IETF community to understand what those 5/6 distinct 
standards, and if the KMP being sought would be a generic solution or specific 
to each one of them. PANA being used for one of them already, I wonder whether 
it applies to the others or not. Any ideas on that?
