[Tinyos-devel] Implementing 6LoWPAN on IRIS (RF 230)

Dear HJ,

It would be trivial to port the PacketLink layer, see the other layers
how this is done, or I can do it for you.

I do not understand what do you mean by not using the AM-byte. Do you
still want to provide the ActiveMessageC layer (i.e. dually support
6LowPAN and ActiveMessageC)?

I know some people at ETHZ are working on getting IPv6 working for the
RF230/RF212, I do not know if these two efforts are related or could
be combined.

Best,
