To be fair, Heiner did indeed give a conceptual overview to the  
mailing list.  If I understood it correctly, it involved geographic  
routing at the top levels, based on longitude/latitude, with prefix  
routing locally.  What I found unclear was how hop-by-hop forwarding  
worked while packet addressing continued to be strictly address  
based.  I await further enlightenment.
