    Hey Zach,
    I’m doing a Masters Project at the moment on 6lowpan security. I’d be interested in having a look through your book so if you require it to be proof read let me know.

    Regards

    Thanks Mike, we will keep you in mind. Security is an area that needs plenty of work in the 6lowpan wg, so your help is definitely welcome there.

    Hello Zach,
    I’m working on energy-efficient reliable protocol for IP-based wireless sensor network. I’d use Contiki in my research and thus I’d have as soon as possible your book.

    Best regards,

    Ahmed

    Hamid,

    We have a whole section on SNMP including references to your drafts. Thanks! Your work on SNMP and the MIB is important. Jennic is also using their own protocol called SNAP, which is sort of modeled on SNMP.

    Regarding pre-ordering, thanks ;-) After Wiley officially puts the book up on http://www.wiley.com it will be possible to pre-order on-line there. That should be after a month or so. I’ll post a blog entry when it goes live.

    Hi Zach,
    I am a student in Sweden. I am learning the 6LoWPAN by myself. I read your book -The Wireless Embedded Internet, it is very nice and useful. Now I am trying to develop a simulator program about 6LoWPAN. The program has to handle the packets of sensor such as forwarding, modifaction and so on. However, I do not have any 6LoWPAN equipments. So it means I have to write the 6LoWPAN data packet by myself ( I use libpcap). I studied the 6LoWPAN format from your book and rfc 4944, but the study is just in theory. I never met a real 6LoWPAN packet. So I wish you can give me a hand. Could you send me some caputured packets of 6LoWPAN to me ? Thank you.
