<div>Thanks... It would be great to better understand the nature of the misconception, and what a "region" is – I can't find a definition anywhere.</div>

we are in group meeting now and explained how LINK (= forwarding hint) works to Zhehao and Haitao. We also trying to figure out a solution to the function you wanted (NDNfit's original design was based on a misconception of LINK).
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">LINK is a forwarding hint, it just carries an interest to the place where the name in the interest can be used directly for lookup.</div>

<div class="">Hi,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Even after looking at relevant sections in the NFD developer's guide, we are blocked on finishing the NDNFit forwarding hint design by not understanding the specific definition of what a "region" is, and how they should be confirmed in practice... </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">For example, see section 4.2 of the NFD developer's guide.</div>

<div class="">1) What is a region? </div>
