Remi,

The question Ole posed still stands:
- what does "remove MAP 1:1 mode mean"?


As evidenced by some of the emails (evidence being phrases like [sic]
"Removing MAP 1:1 mode helps MAP be cleaner as a stateless solution for
operators.", etc) on this thread, some folks appear to mean that MAP is
*technically* specified as being prevented from realizing the 1:1 mode.
This would require extra text and is radically different to moving a
description of how MAP is used in 1:1 mode (to some informative draft).

Rgds,
Woj..
