Re: [Roll] WGLC - Working Group Last Call - draft-ietf-roll-trickle-mcast-05

Hi Michael,

Some consequences:
1) Too many repeaters with too small Imin and too large repeat leads to 
network congestion (similar to having too high send frequency on several 
sources)
2) packets take too long to arrive at all destinations (assuming there 
is a deadline)
3) packets do not arrive at some destinations

This is comparable with what happens when too many nodes start sending 
unicasts on the mesh.

For me the MPL draft is also OK.
