   The current protocol already supports this functionality. There 
   are several different ways how this functionality could be 
   implemented in the protocol, and in issue 8 there was rough
   consensus to choose one of them (if you want different addresses 
   for different IPsec SAs, you can do so by creating IKE_SAs).
   
=> so MOBIKE handles multihoming the same way than TCP when
we expect according to the WG charter more something like SCTP.

   I do not agree. We just chose to implement multihoming support 
   in a slightly different way than SCTP did.
   
=> what is the real difference between MOBIKE multihoming support
and IKEv2 multihoming support, and, more important, is this difference
enough?
