	Hi,

	Are there any plans to extend IPPCP to allow IP header compression
(lots of work on this in PPPext land)?
	I guess this would be limited to the case where a negotiation
protocol was present - e.g. IKE, where the extent of the 
	compression could be negotiated for an IPSEC tunnel, say.

	Regards, Steve.
