Existing Ipv6RoutingProtocols should update their RouteInput function
accordingly. E.g., from ucb (rtentry, p, header); to ucb (idev, rtentry, p, header);

+ <li> The previous buildings module relied on a specific MobilityModel called
+ BuildingsMobilityModel, which supported buildings but only allowed
+ static positions. This mobility model has been removed. Now, the
+ Buildings module instead relies on a new class called
+ MobilityBuildingInfo which can be aggregated to any MobilityModel. This
+ allows having moving nodes in presence of buildings with any of

- New Mac16Address has been added, Mac64Address is now in-line with
Mac48Address and all the three can be used in IPv6 autoconfigure.
+- Previously, the use of Building models was limited to the use of the
+ companion BuildingsMobilityModel. Now, any MobilityModel can be
+ used with Building models.
