Makes sense to me for 802.21 to propose amendments to IEEE TGs.  But
would 802.21 take corrections from this IETF WG?  For example, would
802.21 modify its current draft to specify that an IPv6 address encoding
is usually 16 bytes long (and not 6 bytes as P802.21(tm)/D00.01, july
2005,
pp. 130, sections 8.4.4.7 and 8.4.4.8 would suggest)?

[Vivek G Gupta] 
Absolutely!
Send in your changes/recommendations etc. either directly to me (Editor)
or submit them as changes based on process described by 802.21 WG and we
shall try to address them as best as we can.

BR,
