with regards to the PD discussion after Miyakawa-san's presentation.
I've added some requirements, and based on that started with a
comparison. I haven't read the router renumbering spec lately, so
please fill me in on that one.

Mechanisms
----------
Router Renumbering          RFC2894
ICMP PD                     draft-haberman-ipngwg-auto-prefix-02.txt
DHCP PD                     draft-troan-dhcpv6-opt-prefix-delegation-01.txt
PPP/IPV6CP option           -
Proxy-RA/Multi-link subnet  draft-ietf-ipv6-multilink-subnets-00.txt
RA option                   draft-lutchann-ipv6-delegate-option-00.txt

Requirements:
 draft-miyakawa-ipv6-prefix-delegation-requirement-00.txt
-------------
A. L2 independent
B. Multi-access/Point to point
C. Support for Renumbering
D. Any prefix length can be delegated
E. Authentication
F. Negotiation, i.e requestor has a say
G. Other configuration options, e.g DNS, NTP with the same mechanism
H. Accounting (I did not understand this requirement)
