AB, this draft is an individual draft, not going through a working group. The document specifies a data forwarding mechanism that can improve data delivery reliability, and thus is relevant in the Internet Area of the IETF, more than the Routing Area (of which ROLL is part). The 6lowpan WG does not accept any new work items. The DFF mechanism can use information from different routing protocols. There are several implementations and deployments, as described in the draft.
