I also like to try more generic wording. How about the following:

   2.  Internetwork Location Information (LI) function: managing and
       keeping track of the internetwork location of an MN.  The
       location information may be a binding of the IP advertised
       address/prefix (e.g., HoA or HNP) to the IP routing address of
       the MN or of a node that can forward packets destined to the MN.
       It is a control plane function.

       In a client-server protocol model, location information query and update
       messages may be exchanged between a location information client
       (LIc) and a location information server (LIs).

   3.  Forwarding Management (FM) function: packet interception and
       forwarding to/from the IP address/prefix assigned to the MN,
       based on the internetwork location information, either to the
       destination or to some other network element that knows how to
       forward the packets to their destination.

       FM may optionally be split into the control plane (FM-CP) and
       data plane (FM-DP).

They are two basic functions of a network: to process information and to 
forward. It also specifically includes "binding" in the information.

Hi,

Just to explain why we chose the term "Location management" instead of "binding 
management": 

Actually, we have considered that "binding management" has too much IP mobility 
flavor and we wanted something more generic. BTW, of course, LM refers to IP 
location management...  "binding management" is fine but it may implicitly lead 
the reader to consider only IP mobility protocols... So,  we use "Location 
management" to be more generic and open the door to other mobility management 
mechanisms. That said, I'll not oppose to use "binding management" if there is 
a group consensus.
