I just started looking at this document, but it really doesn't seem to me to 
be a problem statement. It is more like an architecture document, combined 
with a description of 802.21's approach to a solution. I don't really get a 
sense of "what's the problem and why can't existing protocols handle it"? 
It's more like "mobile services provide this, here's an architecture for 
them, and here's what 802.21 is doing to implement that architecture". A 
real problem statement might be useful, but I question whether it is needed 
since 802.21 already seems to have decided there's a problem and they are 
working on the solution that conforms to a particular architecture, which 
this document describes. Perhaps confining the problem statement to "what 
problem exactly does 802.21 need solved by IETF" without all the additional 
material about 802.21 architecture, with reference to their documents where 
appropriate, would simplify the document. I don't think IETF really needs to 
duplicate 802.21 architecture and solution documents.

Dear MIPSHOPers,
As discussed at the meeting in Montreal, we would like to get this
document discussed, adopted and into a WG last call ASAP. Therefore, I'd
like to solicit your input in the next two weeks. Based on the level and
type of input, we will decide how to proceed.
Thanks to the authors for getting together as requested to write a PS
draft, and thanks in advance to all of you for helping in progressing
this work.

Stefano
