[manet] Re: Call for adoption: draft-templin-manet-inet-05 (Ends 2026-05-06)

I support adoption.

This draft roused me from my slumber in this WG.

Problem 7 needs clarification.

Problem 6 is the most challenging of those I clearly understand from 
their descriptions in this draft; solving it likely requires solving 
Problems 5 and 4.

Problem 3 is presumably already solved by any functioning MANET?

Problem 2 seems to be the first step in solving all the others.

Problem 1 seems to be an especially critical and challenging case of 
Problem 2? I'm not sure I agree with all of the statements in its 
description, but that does not lead me to object to adoption of the 
draft, as those discussions can take place subsequently.
