This is one file at the moment. I have in my local branch also some patches (most of them use IPv6 API for address scopes instead using the self builded macros). There is also a issue with error handling which should be a long overdue fix. You will get some patches for these issues in the next days. If we have more implementation stuff in there, then we should setup a own 6lowpan mailinglist maybe. At the moment this is fine. Thanks. - Alex
