Subject: [mif] application of MIF API

Hello,

We have posted a new document  dealing with the application of the MIF API. This I-D is  a discussion paper trying to figure out how a connection manager may use the MIF API.  It must be clear that the goal is _not_  to specify a connection manager but to focus on the interface between the MIF API and the connection manager.  The draft also discusses the interaction between the MIF API and the 802.21 MIH abstraction layer. 

The URL is:  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-seite-mif-cm-00.txt 

The goal of this draft  is only to illustrate the use of MIF API and, in -00,  we made the choice to not change the MIF API. However, we think that the MIF API should be the unique interface for manipulation of IP objects. If we go in this direction, it would lead to introduce new messages for the MIF API (e.g. for routing configuration). So, this  I-D includes couple of discussion points on which we would like to have the feedback from the WG. Quoting the main questions:

- Should the MIF API be the unique API for manipulation of IP object?
- If yes, should the MIF API be upgraded?

BR,
Pierrick and Juan-Carlos
