Re: [manet] I-D Action: draft-ietf-manet-rfc5444-usage-04.txt

This includes all of the issues I listed in my previous email of comments made at WGLC.

The authors request starting all the post-WGLC things to do.

Abstract:
   RFC 5444 specifies a generalized MANET packet/message format and
   describes an intended use to multiplex MANET routing protocol
   messages that is mandated for use by RFC 5498.  This document updates
   RFC 5444 by providing rules and recommendations for how the
   multiplexer operates and how protocols can use the packet/message
   format.  In particular, the mandatory rules prohibit a number of uses
   of RFC 5444 that have been suggested in various proposals, and which
   would have led to interoperability problems, to the impediment of
   protocol extension development, and to an inability to use optional
   generic RFC 5444 parsers.
