I was looking a month ago for a reference on arp-self (i.e. the DAD in 
IPv6) that many ipv4 implementations do. The author of this draft (Stuart) 
kindly responded to me that the draft includes info on this.

Since self-arp is ipv4 generic and not necessarily associated with 
zeroconf, as noted in the draft, I would recommend to:
- extract all data related to arp-self (essentially section 2.2 and 
beginning section 2) from this draft and make another draft.
- from ipv4-linklocal, reference the new draft for self-arp
- push the 2 as RFC.

this will enable an implementor to reference the arp-self document without 
necessarily supporting the ipv4-linklocal draft.

A suggestion.

Marc.
