Discussion of Root-ACK in ROLL-WG - (Thanks Dominique Barthel for compiling this)
Following our ROLL session at the IETF109 meeting, I had an action point to dig up pointers to prior discussions about DAO/DAO-ACKs in storing mode and the decision to go for a RootACK.
If you want only one pointer, that would be the video of the ROLL session at the IETF103 meeting https://youtu.be/7cwhMLaddqU?t=3408 , (start time 56:45, duration about 6 mn).

Could be a new draft. ACTION: new draft on ACK from the root?”
