802.21 is supposed to solve the heterogeneous network handoff problem.  As an 
example, handing off from a wire network to a wireless network (you just 
unplugged your ethernet cable to go to a conference room) or vice versa, or 
from 802.11 to 3GPP.

As I understand it, the intent is for the 802.21 work to apply to a range
of IEEE 802 wireless technologies.  Are there other media of interest?
Which ones?

This will might help the user to figure out what is going on.  Or at least
there will be something in the log to help the admin.
