[Mobopts] ID-update of draft-irtf-mobopts-mmcastv6-ps

["Thomas C. Schmidt" <schmidt at fhtw-berlin.de>]

Dear all,

we just updated the problem statement ID:

  "Multicast Mobility in MIPv6: Problem Statement and Brief Survey"

Abstract

   This document discusses current mobility extensions to IP layer
   multicast. It describes problems arising from mobile group
   communication in general, the case of multicast listener mobility,
   and for mobile senders using Any Source Multicast and Source Specific
   Multicast. Characteristic aspects of multicast routing and deployment
   issues for fixed IPv6 networks are summarized. Specific properties
   and interplays with the underlying network access are surveyed with
   respect to the relevant technologies in the wireless domain. It
   outlines the principal approaches to multicast mobility, together
   with a comprehensive exploration of the mobile multicast problem and
   solution space. This document concludes with a conceptual roadmap for
   initial steps in standardization for use by future mobile multicast
   protocol designers.

It should be on the ID directory soon:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-irtf-mobopts-mmcastv6-ps-04

but may be immediately downloaded from:

http://www.realmv6.org/papers/draft-irtf-mobopts-mmcastv6-ps-04.txt


This version is a major update, including

  * a new co-author: Gorry Fairhurst
  * an extended discussion of transport issues
  * an updated L2 section: 4.2.2 802.16 WIMAX
  * many editorial improvements

From the perspective of the authors this document is now ready for RGLC.

Please continue to push as towards a fine final document :-)
