        o       Note-Well, Scribes, Agenda Bashing
        o       both approved
        o       Status of drafts (WGLC / forthcoming WGLC)
•       new milestones published,
•       Last meeting todos
        o       Pascal to publish the agreed milestones
        o       Pascal to publish Michael's zerotouch 00 doc [confirmed!]
        o       Thomas to review the draft 6P
        o       Xavi to publish (may delay to include the relocation discussion)
        o       Thomas to propose a new meeting next week (Friday same time?)
        to discuss further RPL lossless.

•       6top changes
        o       Thomas: there is now a relocate comment. Node A asks node B to
        move one or more slots somewhere else in the cell list. Neighbor answer
        by success, I moved thiose there. o       Thomas gives examples from
        the new 6top protocol document (08) just published
•       6top status: almost published for some time, 08 published today
        o       Q on the ML waswhether there is a way to move not the first but
        only the second cell in the list? o       Thomas: I think thios is over
        complicated o       Qin: yes that is the ML discussion. At the
        beginning we wanted to use combination. In case only one can move out
        of 2, should we move one or delete 2? o       Thomas: this is a case of
        collision, we do not want to delete the cell. We need to add text on
        that. o       Tengfei: Same case as delete; if there is only one that
        exist it should return error code
       action item: add IOW what happens if a relocate command is issue for a
cell that doesn't exist        action item: add sentence which says that for
cells that couldn't be relocated, do not delete
        o       Remi: If teh 1st fails to relocate than the second will not be
        relocated either o       Thomas yes, all cells are equivalent, and we
        move the first first. For non equivalent cells, use separate commands
•       [07:15] Using the datapath for faster local repair (Pascal) [15min]
        o       Pascal presents slides..
        o       Q: do we take the risk of attaching to a parent with a higher
        rank (risks creating a loop) o       is there a way to know that B is a
        better parent? (slide 10) o       MCR: asks if detection packets are
        real packets, Pascal says they are probably ICMPs to the DODAG root
        (slide 11) o       Simon: does something different, when we switch
        parents, if the parent has a higher rank, we do not send extra
        messages, just send real data, and look for RPI direction
        inconsistency.... we keep forwarding the packet to new parents. o      
        Simon: What if the inconsistency occurs before you detect it? This is
        different from standard RPL, because the looped packet is not dropped.
        o       Ensuing discussion about count to infinity and other things
        about slide 12, which were too fast to capture.
•       [07:30] Influence of Link Metric on reliability; ETX^n (Simon) [10min]
        o       Simon: 5-9's of delivery.
        o       TW: downward traffic... storing? non-storing? Simon: both.
        o       TW: why is a 50% is worse than two 100%? Simon: because 50%
        link will eventually lose traffic. o       Simon: ETX tells you that
        the energy cost of the two situations are the same. o       Simon:
        explains that the as the n (ETX^n) goes up, the churn seems to increase
        o       Pascal: suggests that hysterisis might solve that. o      
        Simon: explains that "LR" is Loss Rate. o       Simon: points out tht
        the upwards link success seems to go up as well. o       Simon: quick
        take through non-storing state to fix things.
