Hi
I'm sending this as a pim wg chair.
draft-liu-multimob-igmp-mld-wireless-mobile has been presented
both in multimob and in pim. In Atlanta there was support for
working on this in the pim wg (5 to none) and the pim wg is now
starting an adoption call.
The pim wg is responsible for IGMP/MLD protocol work and the pim
chairs believe it is reasonable to do the work there, as there is
expertise in the protocols and the draft discusses protocol changes,
or at least behavior changes.
Of course multimob has a strong interest in this and needs to
participate. We're hoping that people from multimob can take part
in the pim wg, and also we want input from the multimob wg. We
basically want both the WGs to work on this, but it needs an
official home. Related work has been discussed in multimob before.
If you have an interest in this, it would be great if you can
respond to the pim mailing list whether you think pim should adopt
it or not. We're of course interested to hear what members of multimob
think. Also speak up if you believe multimob is a better home.
If there is support in the pim WG for adoption, we'll also check with
the ADs responsible for pim and multimob that this is the right place
to do the work.
See below for the pim wg adoption call.

Subject: Adoption of draft-liu-multimob-igmp-mld-wireless-mobile-02 as a
pim wg work item

At the pim wg meeting in Atlanta there were 5 people supporting
working on this in the pim wg, none against. We would like to do
an adoption call to see if we are ready to adopt this as a pim wg
work item.
Note that this has also been presented in multimob and there has
been some discussion about which wg is the most suitable. Mike and
I believe the pim wg is a good place to do this as the pim wg is
currently responsible for IGMP/MLD protocol work and has expertise
in this area. Multimob has interest in this though, so we certainly
want members of multimob to participate.
If we through this adoption call decide that we want to adopt this in
pim, we'll verify with the ADs responsible for pim and multimob that
this is reasonable.
I'm also sending a note about this to multimob, so that they can get
a chance to voice their opinion.
If you are in favor or against adopting this draft in the pim wg,
please send an email to the pim wg list with your opinion. Please
do so by Thursday January 17th.
Stig
