Hi,
We have submitted the attached draft describing the problems with
RFC3484 when selecting source addresses in multihomed environments
after outages.
The identified problems imply that a RFC3484 compliant host placed in a
multihomed site may not be able to initiate new communications when one
of the isps is down, even if there are alternative paths available
through other isps.
Considering that this affects rfc3484, its scope was deemed wider than
the shim6 wg, hence this may be the appropriate forum for discussing
these issues.
The draft also suggests some possible approaches to deal with this, but
new ideas are really appreciated in this space.
Comments are welcome
Thanks, marcelo

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
