Hi Thomas,
During the last multimob WG meeting in Berlin I had volunteerd to provide comments on the last version of this draft. Here are these comments: Comment_1: The draft is useful since it is providing a solution for seamless and fast handover for multicast applications by extending existing seamless and fast handover solutions used for unicast applications, which are the Mobile IPv6 Fast Handovers (FMIPv6) specified in RFC5568 and the Fast Handovers for Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PFMIPv6) specified in RFC5949. Comment_2: A motivation section is missing from the draft. In my opinion it is very useful to include such section in this draft. In particular, this draft mentions that a seamless and fast handover solutions is needed for multicast applications like IPTV. Other scenarios and applications that will make use of such a solutions are Public Protection and Disaster Relief (PPDR) scenarios, where mobile multicast communications need to be supported between members of rescue teams, police officers, fire brigade teams, paramedic teams, command control offices in order to support the protection and health of citizens. In particular three main PPDR scenarios & application types could be distinguished: 1) City security scenario: that can be used to support the day to day safety and security of citizens. 2) Disaster recovery scenario that deals with the protection of people and rescue teams during large scale natural or man-made disasters, like flooding, earth quakes and nuclear disasters. 3) Temporary Protection PPDR scenario that deals with safety and security of citizens visiting large planned events like football matches, pop concerts and protest demonstrations. Comment_3: List the requirements that need to be satisfied by this solution. You may use as example Section 1.1 of http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-multimob-handover-optimization-04.txt Comment_4: Provide a more detailed message flow description, similar to the one that is given in Section 5.1.2 in± http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-multimob-handover-optimization-04.txt This comment holds for Figures 2, 3, 4, 5 Comment_5: There is no description on how this draft, which specifies a mobile multicast listener support solution, can be used in combination a the mobile multicast senders, solution e.g., http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-ietf-multimob-pmipv6-source-05.txt. There are scenarios and applications that require the use of these two solutions simultaneously.
