Re: [Int-area] Continuing the addressing discussion: what is an address anyway?

Hi, I'm new on the list - I'll just jump in, I suppose. I'm working on a couple of R&D projects on drone communications, where most participants tend to invent a different wheel from people here. Part of my being here is trying to bridge that gap a bit. I largely like the RFC 6115 definition,
