Re: [6lowpan] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-goyal-6lowpan-rpl-compression-00.txt

How does this compare to draft-bormann-6lowpan-ghc?  It seems most of the gain will be from compressing out prefixes and zeros, which ghc should handle quite well.

The submitted draft specifies a compression mechanism for RPL control messages. We have currently specified compression formats for DIO messages and some of the options that sit inside a DIO. Future versions of this draft may include compression formats for other DIO options as well as other RPL control messages. The mechanism can even be extended to ICMPv6 messages in general.
