Re: [Mipshop] home addr option doubt

Hello Emil,

the "Home Address Option" is borrowed from MIPv6, and hence
is always included with the FBU.

What would you like to see clarified?
"Home Address Option" => "Home Address Destination Option" in 6.3.1?
This might be possible in the final proof-reading, if not we can address it
in the next avatar.

Thanks,

-Rajeev
