Technical Summary
This specification introduces a new 6LoWPAN dispatch type for use in
6LoWPAN Route-Over topologies, that initially covers the needs of RPL
(RFC6550) data packets compression. Using this dispatch type, this
specification defines a method to compress RPL Option (RFC6553)
information and Routing Header type 3 (RFC6554), an efficient IP-in-
IP technique and is extensible for more applications.
Working Group Summary

providing motivation for why the work was important. Once the document was
split up, this part returned to the ROLL WG for publication. No concerns, the
document had good support.
Document Quality
The document contains a generous introduction appropriate for a reader who is
unfamiliar with the why. There has been enough review, including from the
INT Directorate.
