RE: [mif] WG Review: Multiple InterFaces (mif)

No, I am also interested in "multiple network connections per host", but
my main interesting topic is *simultaneous* if multiple networks (or
multiple interfaces) are available. Sorry for this confusion.

like MIF to concentrate on simultaneous connections to multiple

to multiple networks require multiple addresses. However, it does not 
need to be the main focus, but MIF NEEDS it. So, I would like to say 
that multiple addresses per host needs to be addressed for 
simultaneous use of multiple connections. Therefore, I think working 
on MIF problem should be more than just focusing on multiple
addresses.

I think it's interesting that you appear to consider "multiple addresses
per host" a narrower problem than "multiple network connections per
host", whereas I consider the latter to be a subset of the former.

I suppose that makes a good illustration of why I really want the WG to
explore this issue from multiple points-of-view.
