RE: [Seamoby] CAR Discovery Requirements

Hi Govind, 

Sure you could use CAR without any mobility 
management, but I think that it is reasonable
to assume that CAR will also be very useful for 
MNs. If you agree with that, then it would sense
to make sure that it certainly works smoothly
with existing solutions, that will most likely
be around for a long time. 

Again, I' not suggesting we integrate CAR into
MIP, just make sure they work well together.
