Hi, folks.     
As announced last week, new version of draft-ietf-mipshop-fh80216e was submitted    
(draft-ietf-mipshop-fh80216e-03). 
So far it has been updated twice (-02 and -03) to reflect the review results from 16ng WG, 
and, FYI, I summarized main changes as follows.    

'(*)' is the parts which were updated in recent version (-03).    
     
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------    
* Reviewrs
- Yoshihiro Ohba (IEEE 802.21 liaison)
- Jinhyeock Choi (WiMAX & 16ng expert)
- Jonne Soininen (NETLMM WG chair)

1. Deletion of Section 3 (Deployment Architecture)
- Some statements in Sec 3 may be incorrect for point-to-point link
and the draft is fine without this section, so the section was removed.

2. Use the latest IEEE 802.21 message
- Use a Link_Detected primitive instead of a New_BS_Found
- Use a Handover_commit primitive instead of a Link_Switch
- Use a Handover_imminent primitive instead of a Link_Going_Down (*) 

3. Reqire scanning before a Link_Detected trigger
-  Inclusion of a particular BSID in MOB_NBR-ADV does not mean that the target BS
is within MN's radio coverage, so it is modified that  BS's reachability is checked through 
scanning, before the trigger of a Link_Detected. 

4. Description for the goal of the draft was added in Section 1 (Introduction) for the sake 
of clarity. (*)

5. The paragraph specific to WiMAX was removed (*)
- There were several comments that WiMAX is an architecture specified for 802.16e with
its specific architecture and it should not be regarded as a general case in the context, 
so we decided to remove it. 

6. Section for prefix management has been added. (*)
- This is consideration in case that 802.16 may work on point-to-point link model.

7. In Section 6, numbers were added in the pictures of the scenario examples for 
mapping with the description. 

8. Some technically minor/editorial changes. (*)

- Best regards, 
Heejin Jang.
