[Vivek G Gupta] 
MIH protocol shall only use MIH messages and not Link layers messages (since link layer messages shall be local only). 
There is a lot of similarity in naming between Table-8 and Table-13 in the draft (SAP primitives and actual MIH messages) which may not be a bad thing.
Once the actual message headers, transport options/formats and message structure is settled, this shall become clearer. A lot of this should get addressed in next meeting.
