Hi SM,

RFC6302 should be positioned in its context: i.e., how to meet regulatory 
requirements in some countries when address sharing is in use. A discussion on 
the background (with a concise discussion on solution flavors and some hints on 
time duration to store log data) is available at: 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6269#section-12 and 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6269#section-13.1.

The reco in RFC6302 aims to ease handling abuse claims and avoid revealing the 
identity of a large number of subscribers. FYI, the penal procedure in France 
has been updated in August 2013 to take into account address sharing in 
particular, see for instance 
http://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichCodeArticle.do?idArticle=LEGIARTI000028053220&cidTexte=LEGITEXT000006071154
 where "additional information" should be provided in addition to the IP 
address for abuse claims).

Privacy-related considerations and other side effects of storing IP addresses 
(including IP tracking) should be discussed IMHO independently of RFC6302. For 
example, the concrete case led by the CNIL in France: 
http://www.cnil.fr/linstitution/actualite/article/article/ip-tracking-conclusions-de-lenquete-conjointe-menee-par-la-cnil-et-la-dgccrf/?tx_ttnews[backPid]=91&cHash=6c52ebf7fc988c0c7fe49410c4e69342.
 

Cheers,
Med
