Suppose the generic question everyone should answer is "how does the
proposed system constrain or promote specific approaches to endpoint and
network mobility?".  You would say something like: "IRON/RANGER does not
introduce any constraints on endpoint or network mobility approaches, or
make one more appropriate than another."?
