Yes, sorry for not replying! I was a little bit swamped in other work.
> We have at least 2 bugs open for the 6lowpan netif (which is still very experimental). Does this mean the rest works (e.g. against RIOT or uIP)?
That's the main reason I did not reply, because at the moment I did not find the time to confirm this. Last time I tried I basically hit the bug reported here and did not bother to test further. Let me come back to you in a few days about that.
> Unfortunately, I have no working counterpart to test 6lowpan. Is there some kind of debug environment available where I can simulate a 6lowpan environment e.g. on a PC?
You could use RIOT's native port for that e.g. I did not test it yet (and you need a very up-to-date Linux kernel for this), but Alexander Aring who did the 6Lo port for Linux provided a simulated 802.15.4 device for RIOT [1].
Alternatively, testing and debugging on the FIT/IoT-LAB testbed [2] works quite smoothly (you need to register an account though, but for a member of a FOSS project this shouldn't be a problem to my experience).
> BTW/OT: congrats to your c't article ;-)
Thanks! Though I had nothing to do with that I will carry that to the people who do :-).
