Re: [gaia] Fwd: [irsg] IRSG Poll: draft-irtf-gaia-alternative-network-deployments

Hi all,

We are improving the draft, and we would like to know if there is any real Alternative Network using:

   LTE-U

   802.11s

   DTNs

   PEPs

If anyone can tell us about some real deployment using these technologies, it would be very useful in order to cite them in the document.

Best regards,

Jose
