The MANET group is not chartered to look at fixed wireless mesh
topologies. But the IEEE 802.16 group is now looking at this explicitly:
http://www.ieee802.org/16/meetings/mtg25/agenda.html "Mesh Ad Hoc
Committee"
http://www.ieee802.org/16/meetings/mtg25/docs.html "Mesh Ad Hoc
Documents"
It would not be so great if the attention is fixed at layer 2.
Why not, other than in standards committee turf war concerns?
Exactly what in http://www.ieee802.org/16/docs/03/C80216-03_07.pdf
could possibly be a reasonable topic for the IETF to consider?
