HEllo,

Generally speaking it is a very good intention to reduce the mobility
header size as much as possible.

For IPv6 the problem is all the more important knowing the addresses are
4 times longer than IPv4.

But also in IPv4 there are intentions to reduce the headers during
Mobile IPv4 handovers (e.g. handover from NAT to non-NAT should use the
smaller header).

When you say "reduce MH size in RO" do you mean the headers of the
Return Routability tests?  Or the headers of data direct path
communication after RR was performed?
