RE: [802.21] Question today about upper layers
Take a look at Hong Yon's mail as well. These are fairly generic
standardization guidelines, applicable to most standards.

It is difficult to standardize this because everyone wants to implement
policy and associated algorithms in their own way. And by not including
this in standard, we are not precluding any possibility.

[Gupta, Vivek G]
Hopefully there is a common way of doing this to which we all agree and
hence the reason to include this in a standard.
