Kudos to Samsung for the new IPR statement...

How do the authors feel about the following tweak 
to the protocol:

When the Rapid commit client decides to accept an address
sent via a Rapid Commit ack, it should send out a DHCPREQUEST
(perhaps with the rapid commit option), 
similar to the classic DHC protocol. 

The sole purpose of this message is to notify any servers that 
offered addresses to release those addresses not selected.

IMHO this is inexpensive to do, and solves the address 
tie-up issue.

Cheers,

Steve Gonczi
