Nevertheless, people (MANET, ROLL, AUTOCONF, 6LOWPAN...) have been running
IP over interfaces with connectivity as described in this draft. It's
difficult and it yields specific protocol design decisions because of the
unique characteristics of such connectivity, but it's doable.

More people (6LO, CORE, LWIG...) want to design more protocols running over
such networks. There is a risk that protocol design decisions that are made
do not capitalize on available knowledge about the characteristics of such
networks. Actually, the fact that we are having this argument right now
shows that:

- there is no such document available yet (except this draft)
- there is a need for such a document

Best,

Emmanuel
