Hmmm... I thought RFC 1149 was at a lower layer, so UDP just rides on IP on top of Avian. Really, it's essentially just another wireless layer-1, which I guess would be "WiFly" instead of WiFi. I'll leave it to Dan's draft-wing-it to handle how one does that, if we need a sipping-style use-case.
But I really think RFC 1149 is for the birds, and would pigeon-hole us into one specific path. That would create a chicken-and-egg problem, because without 1149 being popular, people would not flock to SIPv4, and that would fowl up 1149 becoming popular. I'd rather duck that issue, and instead home-in on publishing a SIPv4 draft to sow the seeds, and letting it fly, and we can smooth any ruffled feathers later. That way people can migrate to SIPv4 now, until the final published doc is grounded. If SIPv4 and WiFly come home to roost we can crow about it later, but for now we need to let SIPv4 out of the cage, with space to stretch its wings and take off. -hadriel > -----Original Message----- > From: Vijay K.
