This seems to be correct.
This draft is based on what I call weird definition of mesh problem in
RFC 4925. I don't think it was followed up much afterwards.
If we look back, I think this draft has taken up the precious
multicast space and as a result, no space was left for much more
important edge multicast transition protocols.
Sigh.

Unless there are some differences between these two documents for this case, I suggest to scope draft-ietf-softwire-mesh-multicast to focus on the IPv6-over-IPv4 and add a pointer to draft-ietf-softwire-dslite-multicast. Otherwise, it would be helpful to identify the differences between the two documents.
