We submitted the new WG draft recently. This is updated draft for
draft-fujisawa-ip1394-ipv6-04.txt, which I presented at last IETF.
Changes from the previous version are:
- make IPng working group draft
- remove "Open Issues"
- add "Security Considerations"
- add "IANA Considerations"
- some editorial fixes
Since there are no significant issues noticed for the previous version,
we think it's ready to request WG last call for Proposed Standard.
Note that there are two (possibly not independent, though) interoperable
implementations. One is Sony's proprietery implementation on FreeBSD/KAME
which passed interoperability test event for IEEE1394 over IPv4 at the
ip1394 WG. The other was recently introduced to NetBSD current by me.
NetBSD current still lacks of the IRM capability, which is mandatory
to share a bus among IPv4/IPv6 and Digital Vidio, etc. But the requirement
for IRM capability is exactly same between IPv4 and IPv6, so we are sure
that there are no interoperability issues.
