Before folks go and do a lot of additional work to update
draft-ietf-ipv6-cellular-host-00.txt based on our discussions,
I think we have to answer a fundamental question:

Should the WG publish an informational RFC detailing the IPv6
requirements for cellular hosts?

If so, how can we prevent the two most likely bad outcomes:

        - 3GPP (or other) folks thinking that this document
                is an IETF standard?  [May be handled by
                a strongly worded disclaimer in the document?]
        - Everyone with an agenda attempting to publish a
                similar document for their "special"
                category of IPv6 host?  [Can we just say 'no'?]

I also think that we should start work on two standards-track 
documents, both of which would use the current draft as 
input:

        - An "IPv6 over <foo>" document for 3GPP links.
        - A general "IPv6 Node Requirements" document.
