Re: [MEXT] The first proposal for the DMM charter

Hi Jouni and all,

Just a short question on the meaning of
'DMM solution can be transparent to any underlying IP mobility protocol'

So does that also include a potential view on alternative approaches auch as Host mobility with HIP (Host Identity Protocol) as described in (http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-hip-rfc5206-bis-03.txt) or as the LISP mobility solution (http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-meyer-lisp-mn-06.txt) where use of (soon to be) standard (lightweight) LISP (Locator/ID Separation Protocol) functions and services to provide scalable mobility for LISP MNs is envisaged?

Thanks and best regards
Dirk

Folks,

Based of the "feedback" can I assume folks are mostly happy with the current text?
