Re: [DMM] I-D Action: draft-ietf-dmm-distributed-mobility-anchoring-08.txt

Hi Sri,

Apologies for the delayed reaction. We were busy with the last minute
I-D submission.

Regarding the changes that went into -08, this is my summary:

- Drastic shortening of the document, aiming at reducing its complexity
and length. We have shortened from ~45 pages to ~15 pages.

- Simplification of the terminology and associated drawings, to just
focus on data plane anchors (control plane is mentioned, but the
document is about anchoring, so it is about data plane).

- Removal of parts about hierarchical networks and NEMO.

- Minimization of all the part about anchor mobility, as there is no
solution that the WG has identified as viable. We limit the doc to
anchor switching and anchor selection.

- Keep the focus on the document being informational (it is not
normative, so no solution is specified).

Regarding open issues, I'd like to request some volunteers in the WG to
take a look (even a first quick one) to provide some feedback about
whether we are on the right track or not. It'd be really ideal if we
could have some discussion before the f2f in London, so we could try to
close/decide on open issues by the London meeting.

Thanks!

Carlos
