Dear Carsten,

here my small comments on the current draft-bormann-6lowpan-roadmap-00:

"As the use of PAN identifiers in 6LoWPAN networks has since become less and 
less meaningful,"
perhaps good to explain why this is the case. Was it more meaningful some years 
ago? Or is it simply less used.
A distinction could be made here also between 1) using PAN IDs in the 802.15.4 
radios and 2) using PAN IDs in 6LoWPAN as defined in Section 6 of RFC 4944.

"It is therefore RECOMMENDED to employ a PAN identifier of zero with 6LoWPAN."
-> maybe good to make clear that implementations may still use non-zero PAN IDs 
of their choice at the 802.15.4 level? Only they do not use it in 6LoWPAN as 
defined in Section 6 of RFC 4944.

best regards,

Esko Dijk
