Re: [Roll] RPL Status

[JP Vasseur <[e-mail]>]

Hi Alex,

Few comments. Last calling the base specification does not imply by  
all means that the work is complete,
we have other items in our charter, could be re-chartered according to  
the WG's feed-back, etc ...
We were referring to the base RPL specification and for that we have a  
ticket opened that helps
us track that the base specification meets the requirements spelled  
out in the four requirements
document. For the record, I'll resend the document, that will be  
updated after each revision of RPL.
As pointed out by Phil, if we can move forward with P2P I-D that'd be  
great.

Thanks.

JP and David.
