Thomas, Erik,

The chairs belive that based on the email on the mailing list there is a consensus in the IPv6 working group to publish the IPv6 Addressing Architecture (draft-ietf-ipngwg-addr-arch-v3-11.txt) as a Proposed Standard as recommended below.

Subject: Follow up to IAB response to Robert Elz's Appeal
Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The IAB has responded to an appeal from Robert Elz of the IESG decision
to approve the IPv6 Addressing Architecture (draft-ietf-ipngwg-addr-arch-v3-11.txt) by indicating that the document should not be published as a Draft Standard [1]. Given that the revised document is a significant improvement over RFC 2473, and that RFC2473 is badly out of date, we believe it is desirable to go ahead and publish the document as a Proposed Standard at this time ASAP in order to get a replacement to RFC2473 out.


In parallel, it would be appropriate to discuss the details of the IAB response and how the WG wishes to respond to the IAB recommendations. Note that approving the document as PS at this time does not imply that the WG agrees with all of the IAB's recommendations nor does it preclude any particular follow-on action by the WG or IESG. However, approval at PS is something that can be done relatively quickly.

Does this approach make sense to the WG?
