Well, let's hear it then. What are those errors?



1) On slide of "loc/id separation", the mapping from FQDN should not be





	FQDN -> ID -> Locators





but should be





	FQDN -> (ID, Locators)





to avoid extra mapping and possible security problem.




That's not an error. There is no way to pass all locators to the socket 
API.




2) On slide of pros and cons of "small", all the "cons" are wrong as 
follows.




	2.1) Work with unaggregatable MAC namespace
	or break autoconfiguration





	Structured ID can be autoconfigured by DHCP.




DHCP doesn't exist (yet) in IPv6. And for good reason: it is very hard 
to operate this in a useful way.




	2.2) Can't trust incoming id-loc association





	Association between an ID and locators is secure if they
	are contained in a single packet.




So if I call you and say my name is George W. Bush and give you my 
phone number, you believe the mapping between Bush' identity and my 
phone number is correct because it all happened in one exchange?
