On a more DYMO specific note. The type of functionality described in
draft-chakeres-manet-manetid will easily allow DYMO to operate in a
multi-topology routing (MTR) mode. That is, multiple DYMO instances
could be run simultaneously and in parallel, each using different
MANET_ID values.

I think this type of functionality is highly desirable.

Please chime in with your opinion.
