First off, I would like to say that LOAD is not AODV. LOAD suffers from several serious flaws.
I would like to point out my statement """I still believe that DYMO is more appropriate for 6lowpan, it should require few if any modifications to run in 6lowpan networks.""" was in regards to LOAD vs DYMO, not AODV vs DYMO. For 6lowpan purposes, DYMO is a simpler version of AODV. DYMO is easier to implement and has lower requirements (in terms of memory, code, etc.) than AODV. DYMO is close to what has been implemented for sensor networks, such as tinyAODV. AODV is no longer being explored in the MANET WG. If you would like to chat about this, feel free to catch me before/during the 6lowpan meeting, Ian Chakeres Please see the archived proceedings form previous IETFs to see more details about the differences between AODV and DYMO.
