Re: [6lowpan] Use Cases Draft ready as WG document?

Thank you for your support. :)

Regarding your question on FFDs and RFDs,
honestly we also see that the deployment cases use all FFDs, as far as
I got informed.
When you deploy the scenario, RFDs can be easily replaced to FFDs, but
not the other way around.
So, we thought that the scenario document is better not to rule out RFDs.
That's why we say "FFD or RFD" on every scenario figure.
I will read through the draft and change "FFD or RFD" if only 'RFD' is
used somewhere in the document.
Thanks!
