I would like to reiterate that I think that the work RSN group has
suggested taking on is very important to my working group - 6lowpan.

Our working group is looking to recharter and the scope of the work will
be focused on issues related to interoperability for 6lowpan networks.
This include things like MIC identifiers, alternative mesh headers,
security, ...

What is not in the scope is routing.  I think the RSN concept is
important in that the devices we are anticipating have significant
constraints (power, memory, processing) and as such the current set of
protocols and development is probably not appropriate for these types of
devices.
