Hi Itojun,

I agree to the solution. If we get more people talking about the need
for this, we can actually revive the draft.

Thanks,
Vishwas

        my take on this is that, for non-final fragment, the packet size must
        not be smaller than 1280 bytes.  there's no valid use for smaller
        fragments (unless you have special network with MTU < 1280).

        KAME node will not generate such packets/fragments, but KAME node would
        accept those packets happily.

        any ideas?
