For a variety of reasons, I've had to abandon my work on the Linux 
IPv6-over-IEEE802.15.4 code.

I came close to formatting the patches for submission, but didn't finish up the 
details.

I'm willing to make my code available in its current form, if that would be 
useful.  I haven't been paying close attention but I think there may be others 
working on the same issue.
