Hi Jari,

	One quick comment (I haven't read the proposed text in detail yet): are
we considering IPv6 only? IPv6 and IPv4? IPv4 only? previous charter
focused only on IPv6 solutions...

	Kind Regards,

	Carlos

> Description of Working Group: 
>  
> In order to communicate among themselves, ad hoc nodes (refer to RFC 
> 2501) need to configure their network interface(s) with local addresses 
> that are valid within an ad hoc network. Ad hoc nodes may also need to 
> configure globally routable addresses, in order to communicate with 
> devices on the Internet. From the IP layer perspective, an ad hoc 
> network presents itself as a L3 multi-hop network formed over a 
> collection of links. 
>  
> The main purpose of the AUTOCONF WG is to describe the addressing model 
> for ad hoc networks and how nodes in these networks configure their 
> addresses. It is required that such models do not cause problems for ad 
> hoc-unaware parts of the system, such as standard applications running 
> on an ad hoc node or regular Internet nodes attached to the ad hoc 
> nodes. This group's effort may include the development of new protocol 
> mechanisms, should the existing IP autoconfiguration mechanisms be found 
> inadequate. However, the first task of the working group is to describe 
> one practical addressing model for ad hoc networks. 
>  
> Once this sole work item is completed, the group can be rechartered to 
> work on additional issues. 
>  
> Goals and Milestones: 
>  
> Apr 2009 Submit initial draft on address configuration in ad hoc networks
> Sep 2009 Submit address configuration draft to IESG as Informational or 
> close WG
