Hello,

Recently I noticed discussion of EtherType Protocol Discrimination (EPD) 
and LLC Protocol Discrimination (LPD) for 802.3-like headers.

A publicly available document is: google 802-rev-D1-7CMP.pdf
"IEEE Draft Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks:
  Overview and Architecture", P802®-REV/D1.7, Octber 2013.

I wonder whether the move to EPD away from LPD has a significance to the 
IPv6-over-80211p Internet Draft:
draft-petrescu-ipv6-over-80211p-02.txt

In my oppinion no.  This Internet Draft describes already an adaptation 
layer between a MAC header like the EPD, and a MAC header like the LPD.

If any change seems necessary, please comment.
