This issue is about the window size. Mobike needs to be able to send multiple messages, given that a regular IKEv2 exchange may be in progress when we suddenly change our IP address. The question is whether we should expect IKEv2 implementations to support window size greater than 1, or if Mobike's own exchanges are in some sense outside the regular IKEv2 window (as proposed in Pasi's MOPO protocol). The background information we got in the meeting was that in the IKEv2 bakeoff many implementors did not have support for larger than 1 window sizes. So we could either require a larger window size or do MOBIKE exchanges outside the window. I did not sense a conclusion in the meeting about this, but on the other hand I'm not sure if people care about this issue very deeply. For the purpose of making progress, let me propose one approach. If the decision was "do it outside the window", would people have problems with that? --Jari
