> 802.11-specific because that's what many people actually mean.

No one, with the apparent exception of yourself in some postings,
intends the work in MANET and Autoconf to be limited to 802.11. Of
course many ad hoc networks use 802.11 for reasons of cost,
convenience, availability and so on, any general solution must be
able to be used with 802.11, and 802.11 often provides good examples
(but not all examples). But that's a long way from 802.11 specific,
and should stay that way.
