[6lowpan] ADOPTED: Re: WG adoption of Transmission of IPv6 Packets over Bluetooth Low Energy

[Carsten Bormann <[e-mail]>]

Clearly, we have consensus to adopt this document as a working group document.

Authors:
please resubmit the draft, with no change other than names, titles and dates, as:
draft-ietf-6lowpan-btle-00.txt

From there, this will be developed as a working group document, i.e., we will have some discussion of each (substantive) change we want to make on the mailing list and apply them as we reach (rough) consensus.  (This is best done through tickets, as we have been doing for ND for a while now.)

We also seem to have a lot of interest in creating other "6LoWPAN on X" type documents.
The idea to do much of this in a generic way is interesting, and it wouldn't hurt to have some input on how to do this in the form of individual Internet-Draft submissions.
This doesn't mean there should not be such submissions for specific technologies: If you know what needs to be done for a specific MAC/PHY where 6LoWPAN provides significant added value, please do submit an Internet-Draft.

Gruesse, Carsten

As the support in the room for working on the adaptation of 6LoWPAN for BT-LE was quite good, I'm now issuing a call for WG adoption.
