I guess I saw "mobility" and thought it was abut the stuff we have seen
in drafts abut LISP for mobile devices (cellular and WiFi). If the
discussion topic is VM movement and L2 extension, yes, I agree with what
you have said.

Joel - if we talk about link-local multicast being forwarded it is in context
of an L2 overlay where EIDs are MAC addresses. So NVO3 related work, even
though NVO3 is not limited to L2 overlays.

Maybe I am naive, but it strikes me that trying to extend link-local IPv6
multicasts with LISP is probably a bad idea. Within the mobile device scope,
the registration mechanisms would seem to provide better tools for things like
address duplication prevention.
While I don't know if the documents capture it properly, the fragmentation
effect of mobile devices on EID resolution blocks is such that I generally
would want to keep them separate from the fixed devices.

*5. Source Addresses versus Group Addresses*
Multicast group addresses don't have to be associated with either the
EID or RLOC namespace. They actually are a namespace of their own
that can be treated as logical with relatively opaque allocation.
So, by their nature, they don't detract from an incremental
deployment of LISP-Multicast.
The documents make reference to:
(S-EID,G)
(S-RLOC,G)
It seems that while both these may be numerically identical (eg.
239.255.255.254), in terms of LISP, doesn’t (S,G) have to much more
complex and represent either (S-EID,G-EID(IID)) and (S-RLOC,G-RLOC(IID))?
Once we introduce LISP mobility, what does (G) actually mean, especially
when (G) can refer to link-local multicast for a host that has roamed
off of its home subnet?
