Dear all: I published an early draft for the support of multicast address registration so that a 6LN that registers its unicast GUA/ULA addresses using RFC 8505 can also register to multicast streams the same way. This makes the 6LN life a lot easier than MLDv2, which requires the host to listen to multicast queries from the router, same bottom line as with classical ND really.
The draft has an overview and some deployment considerations that give a good idea of where it's going. It will also cover the equivalent of RFC 901à to inject the multicast registration into the RPL MOP 3 that is how RPL supports multicast. Before I dive in the gory details, I'd appreciate feedback to unsure that the new operation as currently laid out in the draft is consistent with your expectations.

This document also extends RFC 9010 to enable the 6LR to inject the address in the RPL multicast support.
