  |     what an odd point of view.  if, as is asserted, the IPv6 
  |     is "production" then why are we still seeing drafts
  |     changing the address format?

That would be an odd definition of "production" - if that were how
it were defined, then IPv4 couldn't have been "production" in 1989
when class D addresses were defined (RFC1112) and the IPv4 address
format thus altered.

Aside from that, anyone can submit drafts about anything, anytime.
Even a WG accepting a draft (forwarding it to the IESG) changes nothing.
The IETF must agree to accept the change before any alterations happen,
and none of that has occurred here.
