iMesh telecon: closure and adjacency

[Carl Ollivier-Gooch]

One issue that was raised (more or less as an aside while talking about 
iMesh compliance) is whether an entity should be considered adjacent to 
itself.  The spec currently says that it is not, for first adjacencies. 
  Also, the spec says that a second adjacency call should not return the 
originating entity, even if it otherwise would.

Here's a link for a doodle poll on possible times for discussion of this 
point.

Given how short our time is before the IMR tutorial (and given that we 
presumably would all like to have implementations be compliant at that 
time), I personally think it's a good idea for us to converge on the 
current spec pending a possible change.  Others may disagree.
