"The IETF" as such does not exist, so my wording was a bit careless. It's been discussed on the v6ops mailing list, and one of the authors of the successor RFCs (Arifumi Matsumoto) seemed to favor the proposal to drop Rule 9 (actually for both IPv4 and IPv6). Currently, IETF activity is mostly frozen due to IETF-71. We'll see what happens afterwards. Participation in the relevant WGs (v6ops and 6man, I think) is a good idea if you care about IPv6, irrespective of this issue. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
