What I meant was the scope - is it simply IPv6 over Foo, or something

sub-layers,
I had forgotten about that. This does make things more interesting.
IEEE 802.16 also has different support for broadcast and multicast than
Ethernet (don't you love it when IEEE 802 designs standards that don't
conform to the IEEE 802.1 LAN service model ;-)
Folks have talked about two ways of addressing this (so that ARP,
Neighbor Discovery and applications use of IP multicast can be supported)
- a multicast emulation sublayer
- in addition, figure out ways that Neighbor Discovery can rely on less
multicast
Unfortunately, the proposed charter doesn't make it clear what the
approach will be for multicast.
