I will be 30 minutes late due to a conflict.
I think that all my issues are closed.

I don't have a strong opinion, and I feel that some of the layer-9
(political) layer issues are beyond me.  What I heard suggests that there are
actual technical things that might force us to retain the earlier year
reference, and that there are technical reasons to want to remove the "e",
and the year reference.

It seems therefore that the right thing is to leave the "e" in place for
this "volume" of the architecture, to let the IEEE publish the -2015
document, and then consider whether we can/should reference 802.15.4-2015,
or 802.15.4(-noyear) for volume 2.

Perhaps it is enough to say, "we believe that the 6tisch requirements are
consistent with the not-yet-published 802.15.4-2015 document"
