Re: Intdir early review of draft-ietf-ipwave-ipv6-over-80211ocb-34 - MAC and IID Generation - MAY

I remove 'For privacy, the link-local address MAY be formed according to the mechanisms described in Section 5.2."MAC Address and Interface ID Generation".

The section 5.2 will no longer be referred to, but just present. A little bit orphaned.

If the author does not cry out, it stays that way.

I think that the sentence can just be removed without any loss.

All the best,

" For privacy, the link-local address MAY be formed according to the
mechanisms described in Section 5.2. "

The MAY is not helpful. I suggest to remove the sentence that does not
bring value vs. 5.2
To better understand: do you want to remove the phrase and promote the
section 5.2 "MAC Address and Interface ID Generation"?

(the restrain I have from promoting it is that I did not see 5.2 implemented;
neither do I know the IPR status of it)
