Re: [MEXT] GRE support in DSMIPv6 - AD review

[Hesham Soliman <hesham at elevatemobile.com>]

=> Thanks. I just have to highlight two points:
- I'm expressing my opinion as a member of the WG. In this case I happened
to agree with the IESG review.
- It's not up to me to reconsider, you've seen the comments from Pasi in the
IESG review and you've seen other people's responses agreeing to remove
this. 

Again, I happen to agree with them, but it's not my decision to "reconsider"
even if I didn't agree. Also as you noted time is not on our side.

=> I think it will be fine in NETLMM, you can add it to the IPv4 support
work if you like as an extension to DSMIPv6. I can't see why it will be
blocked in NETLMM, everyone there seems to be happy with it for PMIPv6.
